Take this TEST to See if you MAY have leaky gut syndrome

WHAT IS LEAKY GUT, AKA Intestinal Permeability?

According to the practitioners at SCD Lifestyle:

The term Leaky Gut Syndrome is used to describe the condition of “Hyperpermeable Intestines,” a fancy medical term that means the intestinal lining has became more porous, with more holes developing. These holes are larger in size and the screening out process is no longer functioning properly. This results in larger, undigested food molecules and other “bad stuff” (yeast, toxins, and all other forms of waste) that your body normally doesn’t allow through, to flow freely into your bloodstream. When this happens, it causes GI inflammation, A decrease in nutrient absorbtion which leads to nutriend deficiencies and more food intolerances.

Have you ever heard "you are what you eat?"...well, that's not entirely true. You are what you ABSORB

There are many of Signs and Symptoms however 70% of people suffering don't show many symptoms in the beginning.

LEAKY GUT CAN APPEAR AS:

anxiety,
