Leaky gut

The Biamonte Center for Clinical Nutrition | Health-Truth.com:
"Other factors that cause or worsen Leaky Gut Syndrome are:


*Alcohol and caffeine, which irritate the gut wall, this includes cokes (diet and regular), chocolate, coffee, and cocoa.
*Contaminated foods, E. coli and other bacteria�s can develop due to poor food handling.
*Chemicals found in processed and fermented foods (dyes and preservatives), wine, vinegar, soy sauce, tofu, etc.
*A diet high in refined sugars and other carbohydrates (e.g. candy, cookies, sodas, processed foods and white bread).
*Foods contaminated by parasites (pork, chicken, fresh water and hatchery fish).
*Antibiotic use-this causes an overgrowth of fungi (yeast) in the gut due to the immune suppression that occurs.
*Ingestion of animal products that have been given hormonal and antibiotic treatments.
*NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs). "
