Leaky Gut Symptoms

 Leaky Gut Symptoms

The term “leaky gut” has become a popular buzzword, but most people don’t realize that poor gut health may very well be underlying their mysterious health issues.
From weight gain to autoimmunity to food allergies, skin problems, depression, and more, a leaky gut is often at the root of the problem.
It’s important to realize that up to 80 percent of the immune system is located within the gut wall, and the immune system’s first job is to produce inflammation.
“Diseases of modern society,” including obesity, autoimmunity, heart disease, diabetes, cancer, depression, anxiety, and many more diseases and disorders plaguing modern humans.

What Causes Leaky Gut?
Diet:
Several drugs, including alcohol, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), aspirin, antibiotics, methotrexate, estrogen compounds, and others.
Dysbiosis and infections:
Poor oral hygiene can contribute to increased intestinal permeability.
Stress in any form (mental or physical) can trigger leaky gut syndrome.
How to Heal a Leaky Gut:
Step 1: Remove irritating foods and other toxins from diets and lives
Step 2: Replace toxic foods with digestive support and healing foods
Step 3: Repair the intestines
Many people unknowingly suffer from low stomach acid production and benefit from using apple cider vinegar before meals.
Repair
The amino acid glutamine aids in restoring its integrity.
The following nutrients have been shown to help enhance gut wall repair: vitamins A, C, E, D, and B1 through B12; all of the amino acids; and the minerals zinc, selenium, chromium, molybdenum, manganese, and magnesium.
The use of fermented foods and/or probiotics to reinoculate the gut with healthy bacteria and restore a healthy ratio of gut bacteria can be extremely helpful. Four ways to improve the health of your microflora include: 1) Eating a wide variety of foods and fibres; 2) Not using antibacterial cleaners (and playing in the dirt!); 3) Eating live/raw/unpasteurized fermented foods; and 4) probiotics and prebiotics.
