Parkinson's Link to Gut Bacteria Suggests Unexpected, Simple Treatment Researchers have suspected for some time that the link between our gut and brain plays a role in the development of Parkinson's disease.

Many people who have Hashimoto's also have autoimmune reactivity occurring in other tissues in the body.⁠
⁠
One of the most common sites of secondary autoimmune attacks is an area of the brain called the cerebellum. ⁠
⁠
The cerebellum is n the back of the brain and is involved with coordinating muscle smoothness and helping with balance and stability.⁠
⁠
The TPO antibodies that are the primary marker for Hashimoto’s can also bind to cerebellum tissue, triggering autoimmunity in the brain.⁠
⁠
This causes symptoms such as poor balance, instability, vertigo, worsened car sickness or sea sickness, and nausea in response to movement. ⁠
⁠
Other symptoms include sound and light sensitivity, anxiety in crowded places, and general anxiety. This is because the cerebellum plays a role in gating information to the brain, which declines when it’s under autoimmune attack.⁠

The pancreas relies on the acidity of foods coming from the stomach to trigger the release of digestive enzymes. However, many people have overly low stomach acid.⁠
⁠
As a result, the pancreas is not sufficiently activated to release enzymes. The result is poor food digestion, which causes inflammation and damage throughout the digestive tract. ⁠
⁠
What are the symptoms of low pancreatic enzymes? ⁠
⁠
Difficulty digesting fibers and starches such as vegetables, fruits, beans, rice. Bloating within the first one to two hours after eating them. Possible pain and tenderness in the left side of your rib cage. ⁠
⁠
Other factors can cause pancreatic enzyme deficiency, but this is a common one. ⁠

Gluten is only a problem for people who are sensitive to gluten. Not everyone is sensitive to gluten.

However, gluten can trigger brain autoimmunity in gluten-sensitive people.

One of the most common mechanisms for people who are gluten sensitive is they have a zonulin release that opens up their tight junctions of their gut, causing leaky gut.

But zonulin also opens up the tight junctions of the brain.

This allows antibodies produced against gluten into the brain where they can bind to brain tissue due to a mechanism called cross-reactivity.

Each protein has an amino acid sequence, including proteins in foods and in your body. Amino acid sequences in foods such as gluten can be found in our body and brain, particularly the cerebellum.

As a result, gluten antibodies bind to the cerebellum as if it was gluten.

Then immune T-cells go in there and destroy whatever the antibody is attached to.

Body versus brain: New evidence for an autoimmune cause of schizophrenia Researchers have found that some people with schizophrenia have autoantibodies -- which are made by the immune system and recognize the body's own proteins, rather than outside threats such as viruses or bacteria -- against NCAM1, a protein that's important for communication between brain cells.

When is a sulfur sensitivity not a sulfur sensitivity?
A growing number of people are becoming savvy about the possibility of a sensitivity to sulfur. But there may be a hidden sensitivity or intolerance at play.
While sulfur-containing foods are problematic for some, it may in fact be thiol sensitivity.
Because of sulfur’s role in creating thiol, the mineral may get the blame. But the list of foods that contain thiol or produce it is lengthy and includes many foods you may consider healthy, such as:
👉 Onion, garlic, leeks and horseradish
👉 Cruciferous vegetables
👉Legumes
👉Quinoa and buckwheat
👉Eggs
👉Spinach and kale

Additionally, thiol plays a role in detoxification, specifically of mercury. But certain types of thiols don’t bind well with mercury and high levels of thiol can indicate high mercury levels in the body.
While a number of foods contain thiols, they are also found in supplements like ALA (alpha lipoic acid) , NAC (n-acetyl cysteine), glutathione and a number of digestive enzymes and probiotics.
Because many of these products are used for digestive problems and detoxification, you may already be taking these not knowing that could be triggering your thiol sensitivity.
Thiol sensitivity stems from excess sulfur in the body due to problems utilizing and converting that sulfur. So it makes sense that reducing sulfurs and specifically thiols can improve sensitivity, as does supporting detoxification.
This kind of sensitivity can act slightly differently from others in that when first consumed, thiols can make you feel really good with a lot of energy before then experiencing fatigue, constipation, gas and bloating, headache and brain fog.
Fortunately, a low-thiol diet not only improves these symptoms but can lead to better detoxification. You can add in the foods and supplements once your body has overcome thiol sensitivity.
