Symptom #6: Food Sensitivities
A leaky gut can both trigger inflammation and be caused by an inflamed gut. Gut inflammation occurs through food sensitivities. When your body considers certain foods as foreign invaders, it creates antibodies to attack itself. This process irritates and inflames the lining membrane of the small intestine.
The main goal for treating a leaky gut is to reduce inflammation by consuming foods that are least likely to trigger inflammatory responses. Eating foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, such as fatty fish and fish oils, can reduce inflammation while improving the intestinal mucosal lining.
