Leaky Gut Symptoms And Solutions


Leaky gut occurs when tiny holes develop in the digestive tract which allows particles of undigested food, toxins and bacteria to pass through which normally don't.
This allows toxic waste materials to leak from your digestive tract into your bloodstream causing an immune reaction(and many horrible symptoms).
If leaky gut continues causing systemic inflammation it can lead to autoimmune disease, according to Dr. Josh Axe.

MY LEAKY GUT SYMPTOMS:

Extreme brain fog
Extreme ADD
Depression
Feeling like I'm drunk
Can't connect with people
Can't make a decision
Extreme fatigue
Shaky
Easily irritated
Zero motivation
Don't want to talk to anyone
General heaviness
Gas
Constipation
Bloating
Achy joints
Super dry skin
Dizziness
I felt like black mold growing inside me

THING THAT CAUSE LEAKY GUT:

Candida overgrowth

Leaky Gut takes time to heal, but once I stopped being a junk food trash can, my life changed immediately and each day it continues gets better.
I really hope this helps people going through the same thing.
Leaky gut makes life a living hell and most of the time I felt too much like a zombie to do anything about it. But small changes make a huge difference. And in the words of Bethenny Frankel, food isn't a big deal, you're a big deal.
