10 Things That Can Cause Leaky Gut and Wreck Your Health

28/04/2022Medical Articles

If you’ve been googling how to manage your chronic health condition, then you should have heard of “Leaky gut”. Leaky gut is what it sounds like — the lining of the intestines has become “leaky,” allowing undigested foods, bacteria, and other undesirables into the sterile bloodstream.
This causes system-wide inflammation that becomes chronic health issues: autoimmune diseases such as Hashimoto’s hypothyroidism, chronic pain, brain fog, food allergies and sensitivities, depression, eczema, asthma, and myriad other complaints. It makes sense, then, that people want to heal leaky gut.
However, it’s best to know why you have leaky gut first. That way you’re not chasing down the wrong remedies.

While many public health strategies have evolved during the last few months in relation to the COVID 19 pandemic, there has been little focus on the immune system and how this could be strengthened to help protect against viral infections such as SARS-CoV-2.

The attached paper evaluates the current evidence base relating to immunonutrition, with a particular focus on respiratory viruses.
Within the nutrition sector a promising body of evidence studying inter-relationships between certain nutrients and immune competence already exists.
This could potentially be an important factor in helping the body to deal with the coronavirus, especially among the over 65’s.

Evidence for vitamins C, D and zinc and their roles in preventing pneumonia and respiratory infections (vitamins C and D) and reinforcing immunity (zinc) appears to look particularly promising.
