Is Your Gut Healthy?

The gut is constantly exposed to food, microbes and chemicals. To protect the body, the GI tract must work nonstop to keep these unwanted substances out. This constant exposure can weaken the intestinal walls, making them more prone to damage and permeability, a condition known as leaky gut syndrome.
