Leaky gut syndrome is a condition that millions of people have, and don’t even know it.

From the sound of it, you might think leaky gut syndrome only hurts the digestive system,

but it can lead to many other health conditions. Think of the lining of your digestive tract

like a net with very small holes in it that only lets some things pass through. Your gut

lining works as a wall to keep out the bigger pieces that can harm your system.

When someone has leaky gut, the “net” in the digestive tract gets damaged, which

causes bigger holes to form in the net, so things that usually can’t pass through are

now able to. Some of the things that can now pass through

are proteins like gluten, bad bacteria, and undigested food pieces. Toxic waste can also

leak from the inside of your intestinal wall into your bloodstream, causing an immune reaction.

This leads to swelling throughout your system and causes things like:

Bloating Food sensitivities

Thyroid conditions Fatigue

Joint pain Headaches

Skin issues like rosacea and acne Digestive problems

Weight gain Syndrome X

If left unfixed, it can lead to worse health problems like inflammatory bowel disease (IBS),

arthritis, eczema, psoriasis, depression, anxiety, migraine headaches, muscle pain,

and chronic fatigue. Leaky gut syndrome has been linked to other

psychological disorders such as anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorder. So, in many cases, if

you can heal the gut, you can heal the brain. Studies show that the cause of your food allergies,

low energy, joint pain, thyroid disease, autoimmune conditions, and slow metabolism could be leaky

gut symptom spreading through your body. Another problem with leaky gut is that it

can stop important minerals and nutrients, like zinc, iron, and vitamin B12, from being

taken in. There are four main causes of leaky gut, including:

1. Poor Diet Foods that have a lot of lectins are a bigger

problem. Some of the lectins and foods that cause leaky gut are wheat, rice, spelt, and

soy. While you are trying to cure leaky gut, stay away from all grains, especially those

that contain gluten like wheat. Cow’s milk is another food that can cause

leaky gut. The component of dairy that will harm your gut is the protein A1 casein. Also,

the pasteurization process will kill important enzymes, making sugars like lactose very hard

to digest. Sugar is another thing that can harm your

digestive system. Sugar will feed the growth of yeast, candida, and bad bacteria, which

will hurt your gut even more.

2. Chronic Stress Stress weakens your immune system over time,

which ruins the body’s power to fight bad bacteria and viruses. This leads to swelling

and leaky gut. To lessen stress, it’s a good idea to get more sleep, add fun into

your week, and practice meditation.

3. Toxins We meet up with over 80,000 chemicals and

toxins every single year, but the ones that cause leaky gut are antibiotics, pesticides,

tap water, aspirin, and anti- inflammatory drugs.

4. Dysbiosis One of the main causes of leaky gut is a condition

called dysbiosis, which means uneven levels of good and bad bacteria in your gut. Using

too much prescription antibiotic drugs, tap water with chlorine and fluoride, and the

lack of probiotic- rich foods adds to the unevenness of good and bad bacteria.

If you have leaky gut syndrome, you should think of trying a leaky gut diet. Here are

#1 Bone Broth - broth has collagen and the amino acids proline and glycine that can help

heal your ruined cell walls. #2 Raw Cultured Dairy - has both probiotics

and short- chain fatty acids that can help heal the gut. Pastured kefir, yogurt, amasai,

butter, and raw cheese are some of the best. #3 Fermented Vegetables - have organic acids

that even out the intestinal pH and probiotics to help the gut. Sauerkraut, kimchi, and kvaas

are great sources. #4 Coconut Products - all coconut items are

good for your gut. The medium- chain fatty acids in coconut are easier to digest than

other fats, so they work well for leaky gut. Also, coconut kefir has probiotics that help

your digestive system. #5 Sprouted Seeds- chia seeds, flaxseeds,

and hemp seeds that have been sprouted are great sources of fiber that can help the growth

of good bacteria. But if you have bad leaky gut, you may need to start out getting your

fiber from steamed vegetables and fruits. #6 Supplements- there are many supplements

that boost your digestive health, but the most helpful are l-glutamine, probiotics,

digestive enzymes, aloe vera juice, quercetin, and licorice root.
