Leaky Gut Syndrome

a few words explaining Leaky Gut Syndrome
product one explained Colostrum
product two explained CP-1
product three explained Lactoferrin
product four explained Glutamine

This is a problem where the normal levels of intestinal permeability have become increased. Think of the gut wall as the bouncers outside a nightclub; they keep the undesirables out so that everyone inside can have a good time. If there were not enough bouncers or they were ineffective, or, if the gut is too porous, undigested large molecules of food and toxic substances can leak into the body and may burden the liver, immune system and other tissues. These particles can cause many health problems like digestive disorders, allergies and even cognitive problems.

Leaky gut can be caused by not having enough good gut bacteria, parasites, viruses, bad bacteria; other factors include use of antibiotics, aspirin or non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) like ibuprofen.

Symptoms Associated with Leaky Gut include:

Fatigue and malaise
Arthritic conditions
Painful muscle conditions
Fevers of unknown origin
Food intolerances
Abdominal pain
Abdominal distension
Diarrhoea
Skin rashes
Toxic feelings
'Brain Fog'
Shortness of breath
Poor exercise tolerance

Description:

Colostrum is probably the best and most complete single supplement for supporting the Immune system. It contains 36 different immune factors that the body uses to boost or regulate the immune system. There are thousands of clinical and medical papers in peer reviewed Journals on the effectiveness of Colostrum with immune problems.

Immunecare products are absolutely safe to use indefinitely with no known side effects or drug interactions.

Colostrum is probably the best single nutritional supplement for the gut. Immunecare Colostrum not only provides the body with all the many immune factors that that it needs to help fight infections in the gut, but its unique combination of growth factors actually repair damage to the gut and regenerate it. It is particularly effective at correcting Leaky or Permeable gut syndrome, where due to pharmaceutical drug damage or infection the gut wall becomes too porous. This leads to large particles from the gut leaking into the body and causing food intolerances and allergies, as well as other systemic problems. Immunecare Colostrum also contains lactoferrin, which research has shown to be a powerful natural anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-viral supplement. Lactoferrin is so effective as an anti-viral agent that it has seen great success with HIV patients.It has also been shown to be effective with the yeast infection Candida.

Athletes from all over the world also benefit from taking Colostrum, with stars of Triathlon, Cycling, Track and Field, Hockey and Rugby using it to reduce recovery times, build lean tissue, lose fat and keep their immune systems working optimally whilst training heavily. Olympic athlete or Club runner, Colostrum can help you avoid illness and the resultant interruptions to your training schedule.

Dosage information:

Colostrum Capsules: Normal maintenance dose is 2 Capsules twice a day. All capsules should be taken on an empty stomach with a glass of water.

There are two 'Front-Loading' regimes to achieve a fast response to taking Colostrum.

The first is for people who are sensitive to medication:
On day 1 take one capsule, Day 2 take two and so on up to 8 capsules. Divide the doses into twice daily. Then reduce the dose down to the maintenance dose. If you experience a return of symptoms then increase the dosage. The advantage of this dosing method is that it gets the Colostrum into the system relatively quickly with minimal risk of healing crisis and fallout reaction. The disadvantage is that the benefits of the Colostrum are slower to be seen. Be patient!

The second method is to take 8 capsules a day for 8 days, and then go on to the maintenance dose. If you experience a return of symptoms then increase the dosage. The benefits of this regime are that you get Colostrum into the system quickly. The disadvantage is that sensitive people can have a healing crisis or fallout reaction similar to a detox.

Description:

Supercharge your gut with Custom Probiotics Adult Formula CP-1 - the most powerful probiotic supplement in the world. The latest independent laboratory report noted 78 billion bacteria per capsule. That is more than in some whole bottles of other brands. CP-1 contains five different strains of bacteria, specific for the health of both the large and small intestines. Three strains of Lactobacilli ( acidophilus, casei and plantarum) and two strains of Bifidobacteria (longum and bifidum).

It is essential for optimal health to maintain a good balance of beneficial bacteria in the gut. This balance is often upset by antibiotics, pharmaceutical drugs, stress and poor diet. This can lead to chronic problems such as Candida, Leaky Gut Syndrome, Irritable Bowel Syndrome and inflammatory bowel conditions. CP-1 has been independently trialled by the Candida Society. All triallists were impressed by the quality of the product, and noticed improvements in the following symptoms:

Fatigue · Abdominal pain · Absorption of food · Headaches
· Food intolerance · Bowel movement · Depression · Bloating

No adverse reactions were noted by any triallists, and all wanted to continue using it beyond the trial period. Here is a short list of the benefits of supplementation with a good quality probiotic like CP-1:

1. Stimulation of the immune system, cytokine production, local and systemic antibodies, interferon production and increased macrophage activity
2. Improved lactose metaboloism
3. Reduction of antibiotic associated diarrhoea
4. Reduction of severity of abdominal pain and constipation
5. Anti-carcinogenic properties in animal studies

Dosage information:

Start with one capsule first thing in the morning, and one capsule last thing at night, both with a glass of water. Continue this for three days. Then raise the dosage to two capsules first thing in the morning and two last thing at night for three days. Next, raise the dosage to three first thing in the morning and three last thing at night, and stay at this dosage level. You can always lower the dosage level, or stop taking the probiotics for one or two days if desired. Please note that every digestive system is unique and individual like a fingerprint. You need to find the level of dosage that suits you as an individual. It may be 1, 2, 4, or 6 capsules per day. Gradual increase in dosage is the best way to find this optimum personal level. The probiotic formulations must be refrigerated to maintain maximum potency. You can, however, travel with probiotic supplements unrefrigerated for two to three weeks with almost no bacterial count reduction. Please note that these probiotics are designed to give at least two to three times the 25 billion count indicated on the label.

Description:

Lactoferrin is a very powerful natural anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal supplement. Designed by nature to specifically work in the gut, it deprives harmful organisms of iron, which stops them reproducing. It has a prebiotic function, in that it does not harm good gut bacteria, and indeed helps to create the right conditions for them to proliferate. It is ideal for use as a better alternative to pharmaceutical antibiotics with all their bad side effects for the gut and health in general.

Dosage information:

One capsule per day as a maintenance dose. When fighting a parasite, increase the dose to one capsule three times a day.

Description:

Glutamine is an amino acid that has a positive growth effect on the intestinal lining. It is a good intestinal food source for quick energy for the cells that line the intestinal tract. In this way, Glutamine indirectly helps to support many functions of the intestinal tract. It is so protective of the intestinal tract that when it is given alongside chemotherapy, it reduces some of the negative side effects on the gut and enhances the overall well-being of the cancer patient too.

Dosage information:

Take two capsules in the morning, two at lunchtime and two in the evening, either with food or on an empty stomach.
