How to Heal a Leaky Gut

Your Gut

Your natural gut is permeable to tiny molecules in order to absorb important nutrients. One of the basic functions of the intestinal wall is to ensure that it is permeable so that good nutrients can be absorbed, and pass through easily. Sometimes those with sensitive digestive health can be negatively affected by gluten, which causes the gut to release zonulin protein. Zonulin protein breaks tightly knit spaces within the intestinal wall. For others this can happen with stress, age, harmful toxins, or even infections. When this happens, the gut releases too much into the body and your immune system attacks the particles that “leaked.” This will cause all sorts of uncomfortable symptoms such as:

• Digestive irritants such as Bloating, Gas, Diarrhea, or even Irritable Bowl Syndrome
• Food Intolerance
• Food Allergies
• Seasonal Allergies
• Anxiety and Depression Symptoms
• Hormone Imbalances

Nourishing Collagen for Your Gut

None of these symptoms are fun to deal with and can be avoided with a simple change in your diet. Traditional Tonic Nourishing Collagen is a great natural gut cleanser and when taken regularly, it can balance the intestinal wall to keep bad toxins from getting out of hand in your body. This is done with mucous lining the intestinal wall to act as a safeguard against intruders. Bone broth based collagen has gelatin, which naturally produces this mucous and can supplement gastric juices to make sure everything is regulated and functioning properly. Traditional Tonic has many amino acids in it as well. The two important amino acids that help heal leaky gut are proline and glycine. These two amino acids act as a foundation to build strong layers that prevent gaps or opening that can cause leaks. They also help with skin and joint health to keep your body moving and looking young. Start healing your body today and enjoy the many benefits of collagen.
