Learn The Origin Of The Leaky Gut

By:


Most of the diseases that people are suffering from today is due to decadence of lifestyle and diet. This is a gospel that is preached everywhere and it is true to every word. This is why more and more people are becoming health conscious and are reverting to dieting. For some, this is an action too late while for some it might be just in time to save them. All the same, it is important to understand the origin of the problem before looking at the options a leaky gut victim has.

The term "leaky gut" has been around for a while, but in my opinion, the condition itself is still not very well understood, especially in the world of conventional medicine.

Technological advancement has been cited to be the best thing that has ever happened to man, but it could as well be the worst. These advances have brought lots of good things such as the internet, computers, medical equipment and so many other things that are very beneficial. Technology has its side of bad things too. In the 1930s, there were medical advances that really aided in saving lives. The discovery of antibiotics really helped in fighting and killing harmful bacteria. However, this drug was and still is misused. This has resulted to a lot of gut problems. According to a recent study it was found that over a million children in China have grown deaf by misusing antibiotics such as streptomycin. The truth is that overuse of these drugs weakens the Tight Junctions of the veleal cells in the gut system.

This period also marked widespread use of highly processed foods. These foods are considered to be delicious and fast to prepare. However, these foods are devoid of any life. All the nutrients are removed so that they can last for a very long time. Additionally, these processed foods are filled with preservatives that are tagged as harmful to the body. Another thing that is added is artificial sugars. These sugars are simply chemicals and only serve to add toxins in the body.

These two factors are the major contributors of leaky gut syndrome. This is a condition of increased permeability in the gut system. The gut is made up of cells joined together in what is called a Tight Junction. These two factors widen these junctions and allow harmful substance into the body leading to the numerous diseases found today.
