The chain of events, starting from nutrients that change microbiome/dysbiome ratio followed by their secreted mobilome and ending with the leaky gut syndrome, can be applied for cardiovascular diseases. The Gut-heart axis is only one avenue where intestinal luminal eco-events induce remote organ's pathology. The present editorial highlights the mechanisms and potential pathways in the nutrients-microbiota-endocrine-cardiovascular axis that might affect human heart morbidity and mortality in celiac disease.
