A member asked:

What can high level of zonulin in stool indicate?

Dr. Hiep Le answered

Specializes in Nephrology and Dialysis

By Healthmatters website: High levels of zonulin may point to the presence of increased intestinal permeability. Over time, persistent high levels of zonulin in the blood may predispose susceptible individuals to inflammatory, autoimmune, and even neoplastic disorders by increasing the paracellular permeability of the gastrointestinal mucosa.
