Useful Supplements For Leaky Gut

Fiber can help move food and toxins through the digestive tract more
efficiently. Consider ground flax seed, psyllium husk, slippery elm,
cabbage, sauerkraut.


Probiotics provide the "good" bacteria that can improve the health of the
intestinal lining.


The use of FOS (fructo-oligo saccharide) feeds friendly bacteria, helping to
increase their levels rapidly.


L-Glutamine aids in the production of the intestinal lining, improve the
bowel wall integrity and reduce bowel leakiness.


Digestive enzymes taken before a meal can facilitate the breaking down of
food into smaller particles.


Other nutrients that are beneficial include aloe vera extract, essential
fatty acids (from fish oils) garlic, bioflavonoids, proanthocyanidins, detox
herbs, milk thistle and antioxidant supplements.


The herbs and nutrients mentioned above are just some of the nutritional
supplements that may help this condition. Consult your health care
professional for a suitable natural healing program that is tailored to your
needs.
