Don't say weekend getaway! Leaky gut syndrome can start in 2 days
Assoc. Prof. Dr. Öztürk, the syndrome commonly known as 'leaky gut' is medically defined as increased intestinal permeability. Normally, the intestinal barrier only allows for nutrient absorption, but when damaged, toxins, bacteria and undigested food particles can leak into the blood. This creates a constant state of alarm in the immune system. The most common symptoms include chronic fatigue, bloating, gas, skin rashes, headaches, food intolerances, distraction and an increase in immune-related diseases. However, since these symptoms are confused with other health problems, diagnosis is often delayed.
