Hi Elaine,
What an interesting range of questions you have posted.

You can find answers to your questions regarding leaky gut syndrome, which is also referred to as intestinal permeability on the website, Crohn's. net: http://www.crohns.net/Miva/education/leakygut.shtml

This article may give you the information on the correlation between PTSD and low cortisol levels:
