Leaky Gut, or increased intestinal permeability in the small intestine, allows undigested substances to enter the bloodstream. Causes range from medications and stress to diet, neurological factors, hormonal imbalances, and infections.
To heal Leaky Gut, a four-step process is recommended: improving intestinal elimination, eliminating irritants, balancing gut flora, and nourishing the intestines. Additionally, SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) is highlighted as a related condition with digestive symptoms contributing to Leaky Gut.
Diagnosing SIBO poses challenges, with symptoms including abdominal distension, pain, constipation, diarrhea, acid reflux, and more. The text emphasizes that SIBO and Leaky Gut may coexist but have distinct symptomatology.
Natural therapy for SIBO involves removing irritants, enhancing digestion, stimulating intestinal motility, and repairing intestinal integrity. Supplements such as L-glutamine, herbs, and probiotics are suggested. Information on where to obtain these supplements is provided.
