If your digestive health is sluggish or failing, it is often highlighted by undigested food appearing in your stools, and bowel motions swinging between constipation and diarrhoea. You might also experience symptoms like chronic fatigue, irritability, acid reflux, bloating, and brain fog. 

Most researchers now believe that up to 90 percent of all diseases and health issues begin in the gastrointestinal tract. The lining of the gastrointestinal tract is susceptible to many forms of attack including bacterial and viral infectious agents. There are also other contributing factors that can lead to damage of this lining, including long term use of broad-spectrum antibiotics, excessive consumption of alcohol, eating large amounts of highly refined foods, and overusing anti-inflammatory steroids or other pharmaceutical drugs.

Other things you might not take into consideration are invisible, like stress. Whether perceived or real, your body can’t tell the difference, and you go into fight or flight mode. This perceived stress causes blood to leave your gastrointestinal lining, as it is sent into your arms and legs in order to fight with someone or to run away. 

Your gastrointestinal lining is in a constant state of renewing itself every three to four days. When blood is constantly moved away from this lining because of stress, often the necessary repair molecules are not available. This can cause issues with the absorption of food.

When protein particles from food make their way through your gastrointestinal lining, like wheat or dairy proteins, your body starts to have an allergic reaction as the toxins fill and overwhelm your liver. This forces your body to excrete toxins through your skin, or your liver produces more cholesterol to store the toxicity which can lead to weight gain. 

This process often results in food allergies and skin issues. Random headaches can occur as excess toxins are not able to be removed by your kidneys fast enough, leaving behind toxic substances and fuzzy thinking. 

The good news is that many of these conditions correct themselves when this gastrointestinal lining is healthy.
