Re: Leaky gut again

[Guest guest]

You must cut out all offending foods. Take plenty of L-Glutamine, and

GLA (Borage Oil is best, I think.) If you can handle whey, give that

a try. Make sure you use caprylic acid as a part of the anti-candida,

because it is the only anti-fungal capable of burrowing down into

the " cracks " , and killing the embedded fungi.

I have leaky gut and basically I'm reduced to eating the following:

1. Legumes, such as lentils.

2. Chicken and fish, but no red meat. Use the lowest fat part such as

the breast.

3. Cruciferous vegatables, such as brocolli, cauliflower, cabbage.

Also aparagus. (The cruciferous veggies are also somewhat anti-

fungal, so that helps too.)

Absolute no-nos are wheat (because of gluten), probably all other

grains too, except perhaps for brown rice if you can handle it, and

no dairy products of any kind. Sorry, no butter, no yogurt. (Much to

my chagrin.)

Intestinal healing requires aggressive tactics like this. Try this

diet and see what happens. It has *greatly* helped me. Eventually you

will be able to introduce things and see what happens. But it could

take six months or longer before you're ready.

Leaky gut doesn't necessarily cause any pain. Ulcers would, gall bladder

problems would, pancreatic inflammation would, diverticulitis would. There

are undoubtedly many other things that could cause pain. I've had leaky gut

problems for years and felt no pain from it.

Leaky gut again

Dear One and all,

I suspect that I have leaky gut, because something under my ribs hurts

whenever I have moldy food (raisins, leftovers, peanuts), soy, or new

foods like buckwheat. Bread that is not toasted gives me this pain, too.

The pain may last anywhere from a few seconds to a few hours. Is this

what leaky gut feels like? In my reading about it elsewhere, I got the

impression that it affected the lower colon, but my problem's under the

ribs.

I'd appreciate any information.

Thanks,

Marabel

p.s. I've read that bovine colostrum is excellent for healing a leaky

gut. Has anyone had any experience with this?
