Leaky Gut Syndrome (often shorted to LGS) is a condition wherein partially digested food, toxins, bacteria, and abnormally large macromolecules “leak” from the stomach and intestines into the bloodstream. This permeability of the stomach and intestines is caused by antibiotics, poor diet, parasites, various toxins, or an untreated infection. These causes affect the cells in the wall of the stomach, causing spaces to occur between them, allowing foreign substances to pass. Symptoms of LGS include gas, indigestion, chronic joint and/or muscle pain, diarrhea, constipation, fatigue, respiratory problems such as wheezing or coughing, a mild pyrexia (fever), temporary abdominal pain, digestive difficulties, increased frequency of infections, skin disorders, and the inability to properly absorb nutrients.
While Leaky Gut Syndrome can be fatal if left untreated for a lengthy amount of time, it is easily detectable. A solution of Mannitol and Lactulose is administered to the patient, who would then need to collect urine samples for the subsequent five to six hours. The amount of each chemical apparent in the urine, therefore unabsorbed into the intestines, determines how permeable the stomach and intestinal walls have become.
Treatment of Leaky Gut Syndrome may include the removal of harmful bacteria or parasites, the adoption of a diet high in fiber, as well as the elimination of sugary and starchy food, and the use of nutritional supplements and digestive aids, such as fish oil and flax seed oil. In time, the spacing between cells in the stomach and intestine walls will decrease.
