3 Ways to Prevent and Even Cure Leaky Gut
A leaky gut, or a leaky gut, is a fast-growing condition that at least half of the Dutch population (unconsciously) suffers from. If you have a leaky gut, this has an impact on your entire health. Fortunately, you can tackle a leaky gut with a change in your lifestyle. Superfoodguru explains what a leaky gut is and has listed 3 ways to prevent and cure a leaky gut.
THE IMPACT OF A LEAKY GUT
If you are dealing with a leaky gut, very small holes have developed in the intestinal wall. The mucous membrane that covers the intestinal wall is inflamed in most cases. The result? The good intestinal bacteria no longer adhere properly to the intestinal wall, causing the waste products that are produced in your intestines to end up in the bloodstream. Food that has not yet been fully digested can also enter the body. Because nutrients are less well absorbed by the body, this affects your health. Your immune system in particular is the victim of a leaky gut. The complaints are diverse, but often consist of allergic and inflammatory reactions, hormonal problems and mood complaints.
#1 Don't forget to chew well
Chewing well is essential for good digestion. By chewing well, the saliva with the digestive enzymes is mixed well with the food. This way your body absorbs the most nutrients and you get the most out of your meal.
#2 Your diet is number 1
You want to keep the balance in your intestines as healthy as possible. You do this by adding high-quality foods to your diet every day and paying attention to the things that are less healthy. To prevent or cure a leaky gut, we recommend that you opt for a leaky gut diet. Vary your daily food intake with organic and unprocessed ingredients and try to avoid sugar and alcohol. In addition, taking supplements such as vitamin D, omega-3 fatty acids and zinc is also not a punishment for your health. A leaky gut diet is a good way to prevent complaints and also to counteract them.
Green juices are the solution if you want to support your digestion with a high dose of nutrients. Drinking just one green juice a day can make a world of difference. At Superfoodguru we have an extensive range of green juices. Our Green Lover Pack contains four different types of juices, so you can discover for yourself which juice you like best. You can also give your digestive system a reset with one of our detox cures with green juices. Enough choice!
#3 Relax and unwind
Giving your body enough rest and relaxation is a must for a healthy lifestyle. If you give yourself enough rest, you prevent long-term stress. Do things you like, make time for yoga or meditation, go for a walk in the woods or on the beach and relax. This way you keep your stress level as low as possible, and you can reduce the symptoms of a leaky gut.
