A condition in which the tight junctions of the intestinal lining become compromised, allowing partially digested food particles, toxins, and bacteria to pass into the bloodstream and trigger immune reactions.
Increased intestinal permeability is driven by chronic stress, poor diet, alcohol, NSAIDs, infections, and dysbiosis. When the gut barrier is compromised, the immune system encounters foreign particles and mounts an inflammatory response that can manifest as food sensitivities, autoimmune conditions, skin issues, joint pain, brain fog, and systemic inflammation.
Patients with multiple food sensitivities, autoimmune conditions, chronic inflammation, skin issues, or digestive complaints suggesting impaired gut barrier function.
