Of course, this whole process takes time. When we eat, food particles are sent
down the esophagus and into the stomach, where they may remain for hours as
acids and enzymes get to work, breaking them down for the body to use. Then
food particles are sent to the small intestine. First, they go into a short foot long
section called the duodenum and then into the jejunum, and finally into the
ileum. It is in these three sections of the small intestine where the trouble likely
begins. Because of the thinness and twistiness of the small intestine, there are
spots where the three sections meet and where the tissue can become porous.
When this happens, toxins, bacteria, fungi and other dangerous substances that
should normally be expelled by the body are unleashed into the bloodstream.
When these substances are allowed to seep through he intestinal walls, they
make their way to the lymphatic system, ultimately getting into the bloodstream.
Here, they build up, and over time they become toxic to the body. It is then that
the skin (the body’s largest organ) tries to purify the system and rid itself of this {30}
dangerous toxic overload.
Psoriasis isn’t the only health effect of this condition. Even more dangerous
diseases are caused by this Leaky Gut Syndrome like lupus, irritable bowel
syndrome, Crohn’s Disease, chronic fatigue syndrome, to name just a few.
What Causes This Intestinal Seepage?
Leaky gut syndrome seems to be causing all sorts of medical problems in today’s
patients, but what is causing this relatively new phenomenon to take place?
Some believe it is caused by one or a combination of the following:
• Antibiotics: Although these medications can offer life-saving aids in
treating many infections, they also have the tendency to lead to the
overgrowth of bacteria, Candida, and fungi in the intestinal tract. This
can all lead to the thinning of the intestinal walls.
• Caffeine: This is an extremely strong stomach irritant and may be doing
more harm to our “gut” than we realize.
