Leaky Gut Health Quiz

Your gut is nor­mally a fine-tuned machine.

Food goes in to the sys­tem, nutri­ents and waste are prop­erly sep­a­rated, and then finally are absorbed or excreted from the body.

I find that gas­troin­testi­nal prob­lems are some of the most mis­un­der­stood and poorly man­aged in our fail­ing med­ical system.

If you were to show the entire absorp­tive area of the gut, it would be the size of a ten­nis court!

But did you know that your intesti­nal lin­ing is actu­ally your largest immune organ?

70% of your immune sys­tem is actu­ally located in your gut.

One of the ear­li­est signs of prob­lems in your gut that many doc­tors miss is some­thing known as “Leaky Gut”.

It is in my opin­ion that Leaky Gut, is one of the most hid­den sources of chronic inflam­ma­tion and immune imbal­ance in the body!

The Leaky Gut Health Quiz below assesses your risk of hav­ing Leaky Gut.

If you sus­pect that you have Leaky Gut, or find your­self fre­quently com­plain­ing of other stom­ach and gas­troin­testi­nal prob­lems, please sched­ule a com­pli­men­tary 15-minute phone con­sul­ta­tion to deter­mine whether my nutri­tion approach is right for you.
