leaky gut

[Guest guest]

Hi Donna;

Healing leaky gut is contingent on stopping the damage and

stressors that causes it in addition to supplying healing foods.

You're on a candidiasis list for a reason ... your candidiasis and

bowel dysbiosis must be dealt with because it's aggravating the

leaky gut, some foods aggravate it, and an autoimmune disorder in

the bowel will also aggravate it. Even an autoimmune disorder can

be stopped.

L-glutamine is useful, cold-processed whey will be useful, and

increasing HGH may also be useful. All these things produce

pronounced healing. Don't forget minerals, vitamins, and

antioxidants as a component of a balanced diet. Foods that have a

soothing efffect include inulin, which produces healing short-chain

fatty acids, coconut oil, and I'm not a herbalist but herbs such as

licorice, fennel and slippery elm I believe.

Here's my leaky gut article:

Is there any way to tell if you have leaky gut?

Re: leaky gut

L-glutamine is excellent for leaky gut. You want pure powder and you just mix

it in water 3 times per day on an *empty stomach* (start out with one gram once

per day and work up to 5-10 grams). It can be constipating, but I've not

experienced this yet with 7 or 8 grams. It's said that people who take

l-glytamine NEVER develop leaky guts.

Another important step in healing is practicing relaxation techniques. Do a

search on skilled relaxation (this should be done EVERY day, twice if you have

time).

Lori,

There is a test, but I'm not very familiar with the details. If you look on

google, you may find more info. . .all I know is you drink a liquid and then

your breath is analyzed. For me, I'm not sure if I have a leaky gut, but what

I've learned is that skilled relaxation and a whole food diet (no processed

foods) are necessary to heal and these both are good things to do anyhow, so I'm

just doing these, plus taking L-glytamine and a few other supplements which are

good for your intestines and immune system.

Thanks! =)

Hi ;

Here's my leaky gut article.

http://zeek.ca/4u/article.php?op=Print & sid=159

In addition to diet restriction and specific healing attempts, part

of your therapy will be to address the bowel dysbiosis and candida

that causes leaky gut, or it simply won't heal.

Leaky gut is where the gut lining becomes inflamed due to the sluggish G.I.

tract. The gut lining develops small holes causing it to become more porous and

thereby undigested food particles end up passing through the intestinal lining

entering into the blood causing a host of problems including allergies setting

off an immune system attack. The intestinal lining, like the ozone layer, is

supposed to protect anything harmful from passing through. With leaky gut, much

like holes in the ozone layer, this protective lining allows toxins to pass into

the blood causing harm to other systems. Leaky gut syndrome, like alot of other

names are names that can very well describe how one feels when they are

hypothyroid. Both thyroid hormone resistance or hypothyroidism can be at the

root of leaky gut due to the sluggish G.I tract. There are many protocols that

treat the leaky gut but one must address both primary and secondary causes

including the gut itself. A high potency broad spectrum antioxidant nutrient

supplement, the use of digestive enzymes and the use of probiotics, glutamine,

slippery elm are helping in rebalancing the gut and also avoiding dairy, sugar,

gluten and other common food allergens as these can impair the digestive tract

even further. An anti inflammatory diet is the best. Also stress management

techniques as well as getting into a good exercise program also is important.

Hope that helps.

leaky gut

I have been to a Dr re my thyroid in tolerance . I cannot

tolerate DHEA as it make my heart race even at 5mg per day.

7 Keto make me very short of breath,Other wise I have all the

symptoms of Hypo.

I have been and seen a Dr who for two solid hours asked me so

many question.At the end of the session he diagnosed possible

adrenal stress, he is waiting for the results of my Saliva

test from NP TECH.

He also took a live blood sample and examed that, he also

said I have a Leaky GUT.

I saw under the microscope a creature in my blood that is OK

in the stomach but not in the blood.

Can anybody in layman terms explain what a leaky gut is.

Many thanks

No problem . Unfortunately, leaky gut is not recognized by many orthodox

physicians. Dietary changes are very helpful as well as good stress management.

I would also recommend including aloe vera juice along with slippery elm and

glutamine supplements. Glutamine helps to rebuild the mucoid lining. Also as I

mentioned you may benefit by replensihing your gut ecology with probiotics to

restore friendly bacteria as well as taking a high quality digestive enzyme

taken with meals. Intestinal wall cells turn over quite rapidly. Very important

to eliminate toxic habits in the diet such as sugar, starchy foods, caseine or

milk products, cheeses, caffeine, minimize the amount of meat as well since meat

is hard to digest. The average person in America consumes 160 lbs of sugar a

year. This is a hellava lot of sugar. Refined sugar is a very toxic substance

and hard on the gut. Sugar is really an immune system supressant. No wonder why

so many people have suppressed immune systems and are having to take flu shots

for everything that comes along. Today our immune systems are overworked and

undernourished mostly by what we DO TO OURSELVES! Louis Pasteur said to, " Host

resistance " . Your own god-given immune system knows much more about you than

any doctor or drug. So it's up to you to look after it. It is essential you

include a broad spectrum high potency supplement in your diet. Regarding

supplements today which are becoming a trillion dollar industry, many promotors

are jumping on the bandwagon trying to grab your dollars with much more hype

than scientific truth and integrity. Stick to something you can trust. There is

a couple of good lines I personally recommend since they are built with the same

quality as a pharmaceutical is to ensure the potency and purity are met and that

what's on the label is in the product. It's unfortunate today most consumers end

up going for the " best buy " rather than the best product. When it comes to our

health, why would we want to gamble? Don't sell it over to the lowest bidder. Go

for quality not just price. Many supplements manufacturers today do not have to

comply with the same stringent quality control standards that pharmaceuticals

must comply by. Nutritional supplements do not have to deliver the potency or

purity that the label states it contains. Therefore they tend to build around

price compromising quality for the sake of profit. So buyer beware! Next is make

sure you get enough fat in your diet. Many folks today have been brainsoiled in

thinking we need to avoid fats altogether without telling you that when you

avoid good fats you cannot possibly avoid disease. Start replacing bad fats with

good fats. Heart disease has become a man made plague mostly by what we do to

ourselves. Avoid anything that is fried since most fried foods contain harmful

trans fatty acids. These are man made and were never designed to be in the human

body. Fats are needed by each of our cells to form the outer cell membrane which

surrounds the cell protecting it from bad things from entering our cells and

disrupting it as well as making sure good things can pass in and pass out.

Replace the bad fats with good fats in your diet mostly from seed oils like

flax, pumpkin, sunflower. As a rule of thumb, bad fats remain hard at room

temperature. Good fats stay liquid. Another good source of good fatty acidds can

be obtained from fish oil which is also high in omega 3 fatty acids. Good

circulation is huge with those with poor metabolisms and weak function. Exercise

at least to tolerance each day. Yoga or Tai Chi can be useful for helping to

manage stress as prayer can also. Leaky gut can be a secondary problem to other

things. Your nervous system is very well connected to the gut so many people who

are in constant sympathetic state or high strung people tend to have gut

problems as well. Leaky gut may not necessarily be the root problem but still a

problem. Doesn't do much good taking aspirin for a headache if your still

sitting on a thumb tack. Be as comprehensive as possible. A leaky gut is just

one step in the whole picture. Hope this helps.

My gastroenterologist used the term leaky gut syndrome in February when he

completed his diagnosis of my gastric problems (Sphincter of Oddi

dysfunction, gastroparesis, IBS with C). He just mentioned it in passing,

telling me I probably had this syndrome as well.

It wasn't until I began getting lots of symptoms that I now know are due to

candida overgrowth, and having major problems with food allergies, that I

remembered my doctor mentioning this term, so I did some reading on leaky

gut syndrome. A lot of people in my gastric support groups also mention

leaky gut, so I think it often accompanies gastric problems as well as

candida overgrowth.

There's lots of information on this on the Internet and in the literature.

I just did a google search and saw lots of hits, so if you need more

information, it's easily found!

I have heard, from someone I consider to be a reliable source, that

glyconutrients help with leaky gut.

It is not so very important for a person to learn facts. For that he does not

really need a college. He can learn them from books. The value of an education

in a liberal arts college is not learning of many facts but the training of the

mind to think something that cannot be learned from textbooks.

If you have persistant leaky gut, perhaps the bowel dysbiosis has not

cleared up. Without correcting bad bowel bacteria they will always be

able to produce enough toxins to srve as a permanent irritant. All

you have to do is feed the good bacteria and they'll do the rest.

This is a requirement also whether you kill a gut infection with

antibiotics, ferquncy, or haven't.

If youn know for certain it's just leaky gut and not dysbiosis, as I

don't have access to the QXCI yet, all I know about exact healing and

stimulating frequencies is summarized on Bruce Stenulson's website,

but I did a piece on leaky gut for the local paper a few years ago,

in an article that used mainly regenerative supplements, and this

fellow ran it on his non-profit web site:

http://zeek.ca/4u/topics.php?op=viewtopic & topic=9

The page is kind of long, so use the search box and type in leaky

gut.

There is a diet put out by Greysheets, the original

diet group of Overeaters Anonymous, which addresses

this issue although they never name it.

The diet does not allow any grains and few

carbohydrates. It is very restrictive and one must

work with a sponsor, like in AA. HOwever, for people

who seem to have a " allergy " to some foods, namely all

gluten grains and sugar, it seems to be a lifesaver.

Those who stick with it are healthy.

You can call 323 785 4256 at 9 pm est for further

info. The call lasts about an hour, and there is time

allowed to get phone numbers and a sponsor.

Without a diet like this, the problem is hard to

address. Without support, the diet is hard to stick

with. There is plenty of food.

It's not for everyone, but it is one solution that

works. It's free.
