Do you know the power of your own gut? Your body is full of trillions of bacteria, viruses and fungi. While some bacteria are associated with disease, others are actually extremely important for your immune system, heart, weight and many other aspects of health. The food you eat directly affects the health of your gut.
Leaky Gut
The human digestive tract is where food is broken down and nutrients are absorbed. The digestive system also plays an important role in protecting your body from harmful substances. The walls of the intestines act as barriers, controlling what enters the bloodstream to be transported to your organs. Small gaps in the intestinal wall called tight junctions of intestinal walls become loose, the gut becomes more permeable, which may allow bacteria and toxins to pass from the gut into the bloodstream. This is called “leaky gut.”
When the gut is leaky and bacteria and toxins enter the bloodstream, it can cause widespread inflammation and possibly trigger a reaction from the immune system. In addition, toxins are therefore excreted through our skin and mucus membranes. Which can lead to other health concerns.
