Chronic fatigue is linked to leaky gut syndrome according to a study published this month in the journal Microbiome, with Cornell University researchers. Leaky gut syndrome can be healed by identifying and removing inflammatory foods. If additional help is needed, then going on a protocol of gut healing supplements and herbs. If you know of someone suffering this please share this article with them and some basic info.
When I work with my clients that have leaky gut/auto-immune diseases, I always start them off with a protocol of MSM and a good probiotic. They may also need additional herbs such as berberine, wormwood, black walnut, grapefruit seed extract to name a few. There’s a great formulation on my website called GI Microb-X 6 , which contains these ingredients. But just know that many people have been able to put their chronic fatigue into full remission, with JUST using The Plan and the MSM/probiotic protocol.
Here’s some information from June 30th 2016 Washington Post.
“Chronic fatigue syndrome, perhaps more than any other disease, has a bad rap. It makes you debilitatingly tired from normal tasks but no amount of rest can help. There’s no blood test or other easily read biomarkers, so many doctors are reluctant to diagnose the condition no matter how bad things get.
Scientists have finally shed some light on the condition, finding that your gut bacteria and inflammatory agents in the blood may have something to do with it.
.
Through DNA sequencing, researchers found the stool samples in the patients with the condition had less diversity in bacteria present in the gut and that there were fewer that were anti-inflammatory. The blood samples were also distinct: There were markers of inflammation that the researchers theorized may be due to a “leaky gut from intestinal problems that allow bacteria to enter the blood.”
