Hi There Friendssss!
Im back at it again! This time discussing the leaky gut syndrome. Honestly Im trying to raise awareness of this syndrome because I believe many may have this undiagnosed condition. Making some simple adjustments to your diet CAN correct this and dare I say it....Even HEAL it! So now that Ive made major claims lets dive right in to the science ( my favorite part) shall we? Insert diagram below hehe. Im very visual so Id like to provide a visual to assist in the explanation.
As you can see on the diagram above. Inside of our gutt, there is a microbiome and within that microbiome we have a gut lining. A normal gutt lining has a pretty solid lining and doesn't let anything through into the intestinal walls. When we have a "Leaky gut" it means our gutt lining has been compromised meaning the lining is not secure anymore so particles of undigested food seep through the lining into the intestines which usually cause inflammation. This inflammation then alerts the immune system and provokes adverse effects in defense to the inflammation to the abnormal issue occurring within your gutt. This then causes many side effects. I will insert a diagram below explaining this further.
The good news is that there is hope! This can be rectified with the right approach. We have to begin by taking out inflammatory foods such as gluten, dairy, sugar and any additional food intolerances we may have. This is essential to the healing and can not be ignored. So this is my first step to healing. Add fermented foods such as apple cider vinegar and Kimchi or pickles to the diet. Add healthy fats such as Avacados, Fatty fish, olive oil. Lastly Probiotics and probiotics and postbiotics will definitely be needed for repair. L-glutamine and Zinc are essential for healing as well to repair the gut flora.
To all problems there is a solution so lets be happy and strive for balance as balance is definitely key when it comes to wellness! Well Ive said my peace! Feel free to share this content with anyone who you believe it will be useful to. Spread much peace, joy and love with everyone around you! Lets make this a better world to exist in shall we?!
