How To Cure Leaky Gut Syndrome: Remove And Repair
In order to get at the root of the symptoms associated with leaky gut syndrome and restore your gut wall’s integrity, the first step you need to take is to remove the problematic foods and repair your gut wall with the right nutrients.
Step One: Remove The Offending Protein
The most accurate way to pinpoint exactly what foods create your leaky gut syndrome is IgG food intolerance testing, which measures 30 common antigens and then categorizes the offending foods with their severity.
You know soy, dairy, and gluten are common offenders, but you might be surprised to learn even healthy foods like nuts, eggs, and meats also create food sensitivities. When you eat these foods frequently, they linger in your system, slip through your gut wall, and trigger inflammation and the many leaky gut syndrome symptoms.
Depending on how severely these foods affect you, you either rotate or completely eliminate them for a short time from, and then reintroduce them into, your diet.
Even if you don’t do the IgG testing (many doctors dismiss this test even though it is growing in popularity) you’d be well advised to to begin testing how these different foods effect you.
