If you have a lot of digestive issues, like Candida, and hormonal issues like hypothyroidism or Hashimoto’s, a leaky gut is one of the conditions that might be contributing to it.
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.
Once this happens it can then cause your body to attack these unwanted invaders and lead to inflammation and potentially leading to a whole host of health problems, with some being very serious.
Some of the symptoms that you can experience if you are suffering from a leaky gut include:
• Gut problems such as abdominal discomfort, bloating, pain, gas, indigestion, constipation, and diarrhea
• Hormonal imbalances such as PCOS or PMS
• An autoimmune disease such as rheumatoid arthritis, Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, psoriasis, lupus, or celiac disease
• Fatigue
• Mood and mental problems such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, or ADD
• Skin problems including acne, eczema, rosacea
• Fungal infections
• Food sensitivities, food intolerances, or food allergies
• Poorly functioning immune system
What exactly causes you to develop a leaky gut?
There can be a number of factors involved with the development of a leaky gut and these include an unhealthy diet, nutrient deficiencies, eating gluten, too much stress, and more.
Many people have heard the term leaky gut, but what many people are not aware of are the many negative outcomes that can lead to having this condition.
Your body wants to get rid of these invaders to stay healthy and so it starts to attack them which in turn causes inflammation in your body which can then go on 24/7.
This can then start causing health challenges that if the leaky gut is left unchecked can begin to escalate, and one of the biggest health challenges that people can start experiencing is an autoimmune disease.
