Leaky Gut Preparations
Glutamine is the primary fuel
of the lining of the digestive system and the immune system and as such helps
the digestive lining repair itself and helps maintain immunity.
Butyric acid is the natural end result of the bacterial breakdown
of fibres from wholefoods, such as fruit and vegetables. Butyric acid feeds the
cells of the intestinal lining and is essential in maintaining the integrity of
the gastro-intestinal wall. Butyric acid helps L.acidophilus and B.bifidum
adhere to gut epithelial tissue. Butyric acid helps to increase the natural
healing mechanism of the gut tissue after antifungal treatment for candida.
Butyric acid has a normalising effect upon the production of ‘on site’ enzymes
and has a supportive role upon intestinal immune resistance.
Liquorice helps maintain the
health of the epithelial tissue lining the digestive tract.
Cabagin enhances the growth
and effectiveness of natural lactic bacteria in the gut and helps soothe the
lining of the stomach and the entire digestive tract.
Zinc is required to help
maintain the natural defences of the intestinal mucosal barrier and for tissue
repair.
Vitamin A is needed to
maintain healthy mucous membranes and skin, and for immune function.
Omega-3 fatty acids help
maintain the integrity of the epithelial tissue lining the intestinal tract,
skin (and lungs).
