Can a leaky gut damage your health? How do you diagnose it and can you overcome a leaky gut naturally?

A leaky gut, or what is also known as increased intestinal permeability, is when the lining of your gut starts allowing partially digested food, bacteria and toxins into your bloodstream.

The problem with this is that once this happens it can then cause your body to attack these unwanted intruders and lead to inflammation and potentially a whole host of health problems, some of them can also be very serious.
