Leaky Gut Testing & Consultation
Research confirms that the root cause for many of undesired immune reactions originates in the gastrointestinal tract. GI tract abnormality can compromise the integrity of the gut barrier and increases the entry of undigested antigens into the sub-mucosa and the circulation, thus challenging the immune system. Reaction to these antigens activates immune and inflammatory cascades, resulting in the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and an array of antibodies, which further contributes to increased intestinal barrier permeability (or “ leaky gut” syndrome).
Recommended for Patients Who:
- Present multiple symptom complaints (including Chronic Fatigue Syndrome).
- Suffer from abnormal immune cell count and function (including autoimmune diseases).
- Have multiple food sensitivity.
Clinical Use:
- Measure intestinal permeability to large molecules which inflame the immune system.
- Identify the damaging route through the intestinal barrier.
