Food Allergies Building up on Leaky Gut

Is Leaky Gut very dangerous? Extensive and intensive research has shown that Leaky Gut Syndrome is associated with over 50 percent of chronic health care complaints today. It is characterized by increased permeability in the gastrointestinal wall linings. This is as a result of affected intestine mucosa lining. The epithelium (outer surface of cells) of the small intestines is inflamed and become irritated. This results in metabolic and microbial toxins present in ingested food to flood the blood stream. This negatively affects the liver, the lymphatic system and the immune system leading to a myriad of complications. The complications include common food allergies.

Some of the major causes of leaky gut are Antacids and Non-Steroidal Non-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs). These are common drugs taken even without prescriptions and they include aspirin and ibuprofen. They greatly compromise the mucosa lining of the small intestines leading to Leaky Gut.

This lining, in a healthy state, selectively allows digested nutrients into the blood stream while shutting out intestinal toxins and pathogens and undigested foods. With Leaky Gut, the integrity of this function is diminished and all these unwanted materials enter the blood stream. In response to the aliens, the body, through specific antigen-antibody markers, will tag some of these foods as foreign irritants.
When the particular food touches the epithelia, an inflammatory immune response is mounted, further damaging the epithelial lining. What started as a Candida irritation with shrinking of the cells complicates to active inflammation every time a particular food is eaten. This results in common food allergies.

The most common food allergies are dairy, eggs, gluten grains (wheat, oats, rye), corn, beans (especially soy), and nuts. Exposure to a significant allergy can sabotage the treatment of leaky gut. This shows that common food allergies are as a direct result of the Leaky Gut Syndrome. This results in metabolic and microbial toxins present in ingested food to flood the blood stream.
