health nerds – Der Podcast über artgerechtes-leben

The “Leaky Gut Syndrome” scientifically describes the effects of a “leaky gut”: The intestinal membrane becomes permeable, harmful substances enter the bloodstream unhindered and the protective function of the intestinal mucosa against pathogens and toxins is severely impaired.

If larger molecules such as undigested food components or microbes enter the bloodstream through the intestinal wall, this can trigger strong immune reactions and inflammation. It is estimated that up to 6 million people are affected in Germany alone.

However, leaky gut syndrome is not recognized by all medical professionals as a disease in its own right, as scientific evidence is still limited. Some researchers regard it more as a concomitant or symptom of other diseases.

“An unbalanced diet, high sugar and fat consumption, chronic stress, infections, the use of antibiotics or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and diseases such as celiac disease or Crohn's disease are among the most common causes.ouml;re among the possible causes of leaky gut” – Matthias Baum from the HEALTH NERDS science team is working intensively on the reasons for leaky gut.

In this episode, he provides an exciting insight and concrete tips on diagnosis, therapy and prevention: “Well researched is the use of the amino acid L-glutamine to repair the intestinal wall and close microcracks.” HEALTH NERDS. Man, simply explained.
