10 Signs You May Have a Leaky Gut You have probably heard the term leaky gut before but haven’t gotten a good explanation of what it is and why it can be important to address. Leaky gut (also known as intestinal permeability) is a condition in which the lining of the small intestine becomes damaged, causing undigested food particles, toxic waste products, and bacteria to "leak" through the intestines and flood the bloodstream.... If you have a leaky gut, your body cannot absorb essential nutrients. As a result, this may lead to improper digestion, hormone imbalances, and a weakened immune system. Below are 10 things you may experience if you have a leaky gut: 1. Chronic diarrhea, constipation, gas, or bloating 2. Nutritional deficiencies 3. Poor immune system 4. Headaches, brain fog, memory loss 5. Excessive fatigue 6. Skin rashes and problems such as acne, eczema, or rosacea 7. Cravings for sugar or carbohydrates 8. Arthritis or joint pain 9. Depression, anxiety, ADD, ADHD 10. Autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, celiac disease, or Crohn's If you suffer from any of these, I can help.
