WHAT IS LEAKY GUT SYNDROME?

Having leaky gut is essentially like having the gates broken from your intestines to your blood stream. As a consequence, many of these particles (bacteria and their toxins, incompletely digested proteins and fats, and waste) that should never have been able to enter have now gotten through. When this happens it causes inflammation and an autoimmune reaction throughout your body leading to a variety of diseases.

LEAKY GUT SYNDROME FAQ’S

What is Leaky Gut Syndrome?

Typically resulting from SIBO (small intestinal bowel overgrowth), Leaky gut syndrome is an abnormal or disruption in the  balance of healthy gut flora ​that results in damage to the intestinal lining, permitting “seepage” or permeability of contaminants to pass into the bloodstream.  As a result, bacteria, undigested food particles,  and other toxins enter the blood stream which can lead to an auto-immune reaction and/or inflammation throughout the body.

How do I know if I have Leaky Gut Syndrome?

LGS causes a vast array of symptoms and may be different among each individual.  Common symptoms include headaches/migraines, mal-absorption, joint pain, sleep disturbances, gastrointestinal pain, skin conditions.  and more.  Chronic cases of leaky gut syndrome can cause more chronic symptoms including, IBS, anxiety/depression, thyroid problems, auto-immune issues, and much more.  If you have a tendency to resonate with 2 or more of theses symptoms, it is time to seek the LBA to determine if you have the LGS.
