There is recent (2011) legit scientific data explaining how gluten causes "leaky gut" ..... http://somvweb.som.umaryland.edu/absolutenm/articlefiles/1445-Zonulin%20and%20Its%20Regulation%20of%20Intestinal%20Barrier%20Function,%20Physiol%20Rev%202011.pdf What I got from the research is that, basically, gluten, which is found in most grains (yes, whole grains too!) is a type of lectin. Lectins are often contained in plants and occur naturally to fend off animals; they are not really meant to be eaten. Once gluten is in your intestines it raises your intestine's ZONULIN levels. Zonulin, at normal levels, acts as your intestinal wall's gatekeeper allowing good substances to permeate through your intestinal walls and into your blood, and not allowing the harmful substances to get through. When zonulin levels are raised, more bad substances, which are usually not "allowed" out, are able to get out. Therefore, leaky gut! ah! Don't risk it homies! Do you want crud from your intestines getting into your ENTIRE system? (yes, your brain too!) I found this very interesting.

As I age (now 52), I think its a bit easier for me to say "rather than restriction, I prefer to think of it [my diet] in terms of direction. I want to live a good long, health-filled life and my diet should provide me the optimum nutrition and fuel to do the stuff I love doing. So, I've really just re-directed myself when it comes to what I put into my body." I love this!
