Leaky Gut

Leaky Gut or increased intestinal permeability is a condition wherein the bacteria and their toxic by-products are able to “leak” through the intestinal wall into the blood.

The digestive system is a key player in maintaining overall health as it performs the important job of breaking down food, absorbing nutrients and eliminating waste. The digestive system also protects us by preventing the entry of bacteria and toxins into the blood.

The cells lining the intestine are closely stitched together with the help of tight junctions which only allow water and nutrients to pass through and prevent the entry of toxins. When these tight junctions are disrupted, it leads to “Leaky Gut Syndrome” which can then go on to cause a lot of symptoms like 

1. Abdominal Bloating after taking food
2. Chronic Constipation
3. Chronic Diarrhoea
4. Flatulence (gas)
5. Acid Reflux
6. Belching

Leaky Gut Syndrome also makes it harder for the digestive system to break down food and absorb nutrients.

At Mirakle, after thorough blood and stool investigations, an individualized treatment plan will be charted according to the “4R Principle”.

1. Remove the foods and toxins harming the gut
2. Repair the damage already present
3. Restore the gut microbiome with good pre and probiotics
4. Replace micronutrients and digestive enzymes
