Leaky Gut Syndrome (Intestine Permeability) is a medical disorder that happens when the wall of the GI (gastrointestinal) tract is damaged.
A healthy intestinal wall permits only nutrients to pass into the bloodstream.
When the intestinal wall is injured or impaired, larger molecules (such as incompletely digested fats, proteins and toxins) pass through, as well.
The intestinal wall barrier of a healthy intestinal mucosa is not a complete one to start with.
Small amounts of molecules of different sizes and features do pass through the intact epithelium by both active and passive methods.
Normally, the larger the molecule, the more unlikely it is to be permitted across.
When the intestinal lining becomes inflamed or injured, it becomes harder to keep foreign, large particles out.
The intestinal wall barrier becomes permeable or penetrable for large particles.
When the spaces between cells widen up, larger particles are permitted to be absorbed into the body.
Normally the body observes only tiny food antigens and restricted quantity of bacteria.
In LGS, the wall of the small intestine becomes inflamed and irritated allowing metabolic and microbial toxins normally remaining within the small intestines to pass into the colon to enter the blood stream.
In medical terms this is called increased intestinal permeability.
Leaky Gut is a primary provider for asthma, food allergies, chronic sinusitis, eczema, urticaria, migraine, irritable bowel, fungal disorders, fibromyalgia, and inflammatory joint disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis.
It also adds to PMS, uterine fibroid, breast fibroids, chronic fatigue syndrome and pediatric immune deficiencies.
The four main causes of leaky gut are:
1. Poor diet
2. Chronic stress
3. Toxin overload
4. Bacterial imbalance
Leaky Gut Symptoms are:
1. Bloating
2. Food sensitivities
3. Thyroid disorders
4. Fatigue
5. Joint pain
There is a four-step treatment process that :
1. Remove foods and factors that damage the gut
2. Replace with healing foods
3. Repair with specific supplements
4. Rebalance with probiotics
There are many supplements that hold up the digestive health, but the most advantageous leaky gut supplements are l-glutamine, probiotics, digestive enzymes, aloe vera juice, quercetin, NAG and licorice root.
Some doctors believe lifestyle alterations, such as decreasing stress and enhancing nutrition, may be the best methods to treat symptoms due to leaky gut syndrome.
