Leaky Gut Causes, Symptoms, Prevention

What happens when toxins, bacteria, food particles, and digestive waste leak out of our intestines and into our blood? This condition is often called Leaky Gut and it can lead to inflammatory immune responses, digestive disorders, and other abnormal changes to the gastrointestinal tract.

What causes Leaky Gut and what can you do about it?

Epithelial cells transport nutrients from food into our bloodstream. They also prevent unwanted materials from leaving our intestines and entering our blood. Stress, poor diet, lack of exercise, and use of antibiotics can disrupt our intestinal environment and microbiome, which, in turn, can weaken the junctions between epithelial cells. Without tight epithelial junctions, unwanted materials can leak out into our blood.

A healthy microbiome supports healthy epithelial cells and helps prevent leaky gut. Whole food nutrition, exercise, and stress management techniques can help improve your microbiome, support epithelial cells, and prevent Leaky Gut.

I had given up sugar and bread for a couple months and last night I went nuts eating cake and crepes. My skin was itching al night. There is a connection but no one believes me.

For those that need immediate relief from excruciating gut pain, eat kiwi. In 5 to 10 minutes the pain will subside. I promise, please share. I never want to feel that pain again. The worst pain i have ever felt.

The gut is so important to protect! Especially now when our immune system is based in our gut! health certainly comes from within.

Developed a severe eczema in my feet in the last 6 months. Went to 5 doctors which only kept prescribing me steroids and antibiotics. I am now trying another perspective with a functional nutritionist. She prescribed me several blood and urine exams and I just now discovered a low Vit C and I am now treating it along with probiotics and balanced diet. Haven't felt burnings nor itching in ny feet for the last 3 weels which is such a relief. My feet are still a bit red but I am hoping they will be even better once I can recover my vit C and gut bacteria.

Thanks for your insight on this crucial topic! A survey in 2018 of 71, 000 Americans found that 61% had at least one bothersome gut symptom! The most symptom was acid reflux, then abdominal pain, then bloating!

L-Glutamine supplementation fixed this issue for me. If anyone is having trouble with leaky gut I highly suggest you give it a try.

The medical industrial complex's failure to properly research and diagnose and treat diet and microbiome and sleep and vital nutritional deficiency issues (including those related to Vitamin D3 and Vitamin K2 and Magnesium deficiencies as well as iatrogenic prescription medication usage) is a major reason why psychiatric iatrogenesis is a primary contributor to the third leading cause of death in the U.S. (which is iatrogenesis in general). If the U.S. spent just a fraction of the over $40 billion each year it spends just on iatrogenic psychiatric drugs alone, for properly researching the issues discussed in this and related YouTube presentations we would probably, Lord willing, achieve an absolute revolution in medical efficacy improvement and iatrogenesis reduction.

I think not emptying your bowel is one of the main causes. I see so many patients having bowel movements once a week once every two weeks. That'll definitely destroy the entire digestive system front to back. Or top to bottom shall I say.

Is it possible to close back those epithelial cells?

Great Video! Thanks for highlighting the importance of gut health. Nutrition is such a key aspect of maintaining gut health and immunity. Well explained.

What I've gathered from this comment setion is that everyone thinks they're a health expert. Proceed with caution whatever you choose to do.

For the past 5 years everything I eat or drink hurts my stomach sooo bad that sometimes I just have to sit on the go round. Even gum hurts my stomach

And not a single mention of gallbladder removal contributing to the problem at all, HUH! The funny thing is that it sounds like the surgeon who didn't present me with an intelligent or informed choice to try and preserve my gallbladder. It was... you don't need it, so rip it out. All the while, dollar signs danced in his head.

I was vomiting my ass off last night after eating cheeze-its

Pretty sure fasting heals it...I'm going to try it.

Vague, I been eating extremely healthy and exercising and get lots of rest without stress and yet my stomach is always bloated, I am retaining water easily and my body doesnt want to release the adipose tissue.

Not sure if this is what I have. My main symptom is to get to the
bathroom quickly. Could be diarrhea or frustrating constipation,
sometimes cramps. May have to sit for a while before I feel like I'm
"done." My research says it's caused by too many antibiotics (I don't
take any pharma medicines), sugar, and ROUNDUP!!! (I guess I don't wash
my fruits and veggies enough.) Have ordered the homeopathic remedy
Carbolic Acid (30c). In homeopathy, "like cures like" and carbolic acid
is RoundUp. It's frequency medicine that acts like an antidote. I also
ordered a Leaky Gut supplement. We'll see what happens. Sure hope it
works. I'm also off sugar for 6 months. My naturopathic doc said sugar
kills your immune system, and it takes 90 days to get it out of your
body. Very frustrating since it makes it hard to do craft shows without
a toilet nearby...

Music too loud, can’t hear the messages!

Pretty poor, thought I was going to learn how to heal leaky gut. Waste of time watching.👎

What is Wikipedia doing when it classifies Leaky gut syndrome as pseudoscience while it still got an article up of the condition under a different name (Hypoalbuminemia) ???
