Leaky Gut - the name is enough to disgust you. But pay attention!  Experts are beginning to believe that this ailment is more common than has been thought, and that is can be the cause of many diseases ranging from allergies to lupus, Candida, Arthritis, diabetes, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia and even Crohn's disease could be linked to leaky gut syndrome.

What is leaky gut ?
After passing through the stomach, whatever we eat passes into the small intestine which is designed to allow nutrients to be absorbed from the food and into the blood stream. The mucus lining of the intestine consists of helpful bacterial and good yeasts which break down the food into substances which are beneficially used by the body. When the composition of this lining is disturbed, the intestine walls can be damaged, and become porous - allowing unwanted substances to penetrate the lining and into the bloodstream.
The body becomes overwhelmed by this flood of foreign substances, and reacts  by producing antibodies and resultant inflammation to joints and circulatory systems, allergic reactions and even mood swings.

What causes leaky gut ?
A large number of factors are thought to be the villains, including:

	Overuse of antibiotics, steroids, NSAIDS (aspirin, ibuprofen, etc)
	Poor diet - high in refined foods and sugars and nutritional deficiencies
	Incomplete digestion
	Heightened exposure to environmental toxins
	Stress
	Parasitic infestations

What are the symptoms?
These are wide ranging, and include:

	Candidiasis, when "bad" yeast takes over the intestines and other parts of the body such as the vagina. In some instances, candida can even invade the brain.
	Allergies - food, airborne, environmental, skin
	A weakened immune system with all the problems that can follow
	Chronic fatigue, irritable bowel syndrome
	Auto-immune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, CFS and lupus.

What steps are necessary to repair leaky gut?
These include:

	Removing the candida yeast and its roots which penetrate the mucous lining
	Flush any parasites out of the gut, both microscopic and visible
	Cleanse the gut of toxins
	Keep away from the non-food foods: sugars, refined carbohydrates, coffee, fatty foods.
	Enhance the flow of digestive secretions such as HCl and pancreatic enzymes.
	Provide proper nutrition to the body with Greens +
	Include the right supplements in this diet: zinc, anti-oxidants, L-glutamine,  insulin stimulators, garlic, barberry, pau de arco, oragano, and healthy living flora in yogurt etc.
	Drink only purified water and lots of it!

Conclusions
All of these steps require conscious life style changes which may seem difficult to take. However, the implications of leaky gut syndrome on the body's general health are serious, and orthodox medicine has no quick fixes - the antibiotics that might be prescribed are only going to exacerbate the problem. Most Physicians deny it very existence, because the pharmaceutical industry has no drugs to counteract it.
ReNew Life of Tarpon Springs, Florida has developed a number of great, natural herbal products after years of testing which are proven to remedy the damage to the gut - they are IntestiNEW,  FloraMore, ParaGone and ParaZYME.
