Improving Gut Permeability

The intestinal wall serves as an essential barrier and front with respect to the human immune system. Numerous foods and nutrients have clinically demonstrated an ability to alter the size of the tight junctions that lie between the epithelial cells which comprise the brush border. The size of these gap junctions ultimately determines the level of permeability allowed by the gut wall.
Both dietary ingredients and microbial populations play pivotal roles in the maintenance of brush border mucosal integrity and tight junction configurations. Discover how the intestinal environment and dietary patterns influence the challenges presented to the immune system and the level to which specific proteins enter circulation.
Learning Objectives: Upon completion of this webinar, participants will be able to:
1. Identify the role of tight junctions in maintaining normal absorption and immune system function.
2. List those foods and/or nutrients that have been clinically proven to alter the width of tight junctions.
3. Describe at least 3 dietary patterns that compromise gut wall integrity
4. Explain how clinicians can address excessive intestinal permeability through both dietary and microbial interventions.

Thank you for publishing this.

[@jeannelocke8852]

So helpful. Thank you

[@deris7865]

Thank you so much for a wonderful job and supporting it. Wonderful work!

[@eugeniebreida1583]

Fabulous presentation and Q&A, thanks so much!

[@ElaineMLove]

Thank you. It was a great refresher; the published papers are going to be helpful.

A Carnivore diet is very effective for auto-immune conditions...possibly because the nutrient dense wholefoods repair the gut wall permeability described in this very informative video.

I had all sorts of digestive issues until I became a vegan. The cure for me was cutting out all animal products and eating a simple organic whole food diet

[@AstonAcademia]

Any studies you can provide? Thanks

[@levansegnaro4637]

Carnivore devistated my gut. A whole food vegan diet is the only thing that works for me, fermented high antioxidant foods like kimchi, sourkrout, sourdough bread, beans, kombucha, etc, have helped me so much.

Seems your statement is contradictory and confusing

[@maryr7593]

How does connective tissue disorders contribute to this? What about having a hyper-sensitive immune system...mcas?

thank you!!!~

[@andreafrancis5285]

Thank Dr. Love how you teach is there any teaching on treating small intestinal over growth i eill love to hear something on that

[@inthevortex-de1rh]

Watch Dr William Davis

[@billandpech]

I think more people would watch if you get to the point quicker

[@ElaineMLove]

Wow!! Was that necessary?!

[@billandpech]

I thought so, but who knows?@@ElaineMLove s @ElaineMLove
