I do believe I have this problem again. When I went to the private hospital, the doc explained that with this condition bits of food leak through your gut into your blood stream and cause a multitude of symptoms, such as feeling fluey. I have looked at many posts and websites and confess Im a bit stuck cos most fruits and veg dont seem to agree with me and Im not sure what to do to start remedying this condition, I do take priobotics but is there anything else to help Thanks Tracy PS Have tried colon cleanse but felt quit ill.

Tracy, have you tried an elimination diet? I can't eat gluten, dairy, eggs, or cane sugar. I did a test through York to find my IgG's, but you can do it through elimination.

I can't tolerate raw veggies very well. You might also be sensitive to fructose- the sugar in fruit- if you aren't tolerating fruit well.

Make sure your probiotic includes Bifidus strains and not just Acidophilus. The more strains, the better, too! I have tried the cheap stuff, and it does nothing for me.

Thanks Tracy

Tracy,

Seems like you have been there before. I had allergy testing done after trying elimination. The blood allergy test that test for IgG was invaluable. I could not have known some of the stuff I was reacting too. (asparagus - which I love, sugar, gluten, dairy and odd ones!)

I also took a digestive enzyme.

Mercury, I understand, can be a root cause for leaky gut not getting better so hopefully with time this will heal. I think you have said before that all your teeth were "done". Now it is just living through the hell of detox and healing.

Hi Tracy. I also have leaky gut and found out with testing that I have the antibodies for soy, gluten, eggs, and dairy. I also had an electoconductance test done which showed ALOT more food sensitivities, but I am questioning the validity of it. It didn't not show any problems with metals or parasites which have been confirmed for sure. High levels of mercury after taking a chelation agent, 3 different parasites, 2 kinds of yeast, and C-diff. My doctor recommended Floraster, amla paste, and ultrainflamX (a medical food), along with many other supplements and chelation. It is all helping, but there has been ups and downs.
