Food Allergies - A Common Cause Of Poor Health?
Allergies are a growing concern and are becoming more common in our society. An allergy occurs when your body comes into contact with a substance that it is incompatible with. This could be a food or liquid that you’ve consumed, a substance that you have inhaled, a material that has come in contact with your skin, or by a condition called Leaky Gut Syndrome (damage to the mucous membrane lining of your digestive tract).
What is Leaky Gut Syndrome?
Leaky Gut Syndrome, also known as 'Intestinal Permeability' and 'Leaky Bowel Syndrome' is believed to affect up to 65% of the population. It is the deterioration or breakdown of your intestinal wall, in particular the tight junctions that hold your intestinal cells together. When this occurs microscopic holes appear in either your large or small intestine, which allows intestinal bacteria, parasites, worms and their bi-products as well as allergens, undigested food particles, poisons, toxins and in severe cases faeces to pass into your bloodstream.
Is Pyrrole Disorder Causing You to Suffer?
Pyrrole Disorder can best be described as the abnormal synthesis and metabolism of the oxygen carrying molecule in your blood, called haemoglobin. All cells in your body produce waste or by-products and the by-product of haemoglobin is a metabolite called hydroxyhemopyrrolin-2-one (HPL) also known as Pyrrole. This metabolite was originally thought to be a Kryptopyrrole but further studies have proven this not the case.
Understanding Pyroluria and What Causes It
Pyroluria can best be described as the abnormal synthesis and metabolism of the oxygen carrying molecule haemoglobin. Pyroluria Sufferers produce excessive amounts of hydroxyhemopyrrolin-2-one, which binds to, inhibits absorption and increase urinary excretion of Zinc, Vitamin B6 and Biotin
Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Whilst there can be many causes of Irritable Bowel Syndrome, many of the unpleasant symptoms associated with this condition can be dramatically improve by adopting a few simple strategies and treatment protocols.
