What Are The Preventive Measures For Leaky Gut?
I ve had stomach problems for many years which gastro docs couldn t cure. I finally found a Naturopath who put me on the GAP diet. . .see book Gap and the Psychology syndrome I no longer have stomach issues as long as I follow the diet for my leaky gut. I wish you would talk more about issues such as leaky gut and be more proactive with prevention. Thanks

Hello,
The leaky gut co relate with malabsorption syndrome, pancreatic disorder or else. A detailed work up with gastroenterologist is mandatory to find out the cause with endoscopy, CT scan of abdomen and pelvis, lab work up as well. However, general preventive measures include:
- More amounts of liquid intake
- Fresh yogurt serve great to replenish intestine flora
- Dietary precautions to avoid spices, irritants as non veg, junk food
- Avoid smoking, alcohol if consuming
- Pre biotics with sachharomysis bullardie and probiotics with lacto bacillus
- Control of anxiety, stress
- Regular exercises, aerobics
- Control of obesity, blood cholesterol and sugar levels
- Bran or Psyllium in case of constipated gut
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
