Provoking Inflammation: The 10 Obscure Symptoms Of Leaky Gut

Silent Killers Summit: Reversing The Root Cause Of Chronic Inflammatory Disease

The truth is that actually most symptoms of leaky gut aren't even gut-related problems. So I'm going to unpack the top 10 of these symptoms for you today. So have a pen and paper handy to take all the notes. So if you're watching this video, then I bet I know how you're feeling at the end of the week because you wouldn't be here listening if you weren't searching for answers. So you probably have something like low energy. You probably feel like your health is going backward. You probably feel like your brain isn't as reliable as it used to be, or maybe your joints are aching all over, or you're breaking out with acne like a hormonal teenager. Or maybe you've got debilitating headaches or anxiety that seem to come out of nowhere. Or here's the crazy thing, all those symptoms could actually be caused by a leaky gut. And that's why today I'm going to help you navigate through the top 10 symptoms of leaky gut that cause inflammation and have absolutely nothing to do with your digestion or elimination. 

You don't have to have constipation, diarrhea, bloating, indigestion, heartburn, or abdominal pain to have a leaky gut. You can totally poop like a champion every day and have a stomach of steel and still have a gut microbiome problem. Now I'm going to break some myths and I'm going to drop some knowledge bombs on you. So here we go. A leaky gut happens when your gut lining becomes damaged and weak. When things like toxins from your deodorant or other personal hygiene products or undigested food particles or parasites and fungus and bacteria and pesticides and chemicals from your food and water start leaking into your bloodstream. And yes, I said parasites and bacteria leaking into your bloodstream because they go right through that gut barrier wall as well. So this triggers your mitochondria energy production to slow down. It triggers your immune system to go crazy. It triggers you to launch an inflammation attack throughout your body, which then leads to a whole bunch of symptoms that you might not even realize are related to your gut health.

So here are the top 10 symptoms that could be plaguing you. You could be experiencing this, and I'm going to go through them pretty quickly. So number one is fatigue, tired, feeling tired, mid-day energy crash, waking up feeling tired. You can totally blame it on the leaky gut and all that inflammation and immune response is just wearing you out. And it takes a lot of mitochondrial energy production for your body to deal with inflammation. Number two is joint pain. If you're feeling like an old creaky door that needs some WD-40. I can remember my dad. We always gave him WD 40 at Christmas and it's always a stocking stuffer for him. It might just be that a leaky gut is causing inflammation in your joints. And come to think of it, that WD-40 is probably very, very toxic. So probably wasn't good that we were giving him that every year. Number three is skin issues. You might be thinking, why do I feel like my face looks like I'm 15 again? Well, it could be that a leaky gut is causing inflammation in your skin and leading to conditions like eczema and acne.

Number four is brain fog. Are you having trouble remembering your own name? That's a joke because I think most of you remember your name or do you have a hard time multitasking because that is no joke? Or do you have a hard time concentrating? Or maybe you've been driving down the road and passed right past your exit. You know, it could be that you were just having a busy day and you were thinking of a million things, or maybe you were paying attention and you still missed that exit. The leaky gut might be messing with your cognitive ability and giving you some serious brain fog. Number five is headaches and the pounding headaches that strike you at an inconvenient time or migraines at an inconvenient time. For me, it used to be I'd get a migraine right in the middle of my workday. I'd be seeing a patient and the ocular aura would come and I'd lose vision in one eye, and then I'd have this debilitating headache pain the rest of the day. A leaky gut is one of the main reasons. The sixth thing here is autoimmune conditions like thyroiditis Grave's Disease, Type one, diabetes, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, celiac disease, alopecia areata, and vitiligo. If you have any of these or any of the others, I haven't mentioned, it means your body is attacking itself. Well, it could be that a leaky gut is contributing to the development of those autoimmune disorders. In fact, we could probably say 100% of people with an autoimmune disorder have leaky gut. 

Number seven is moodiness. If you feel like a hot mess emotionally, if you feel like you're up and down with your feelings and your family is frustrated with you, they're getting sick of you. It might be time to consider that a leaky gut is affecting and messing with your gut-brain connection and contributing to disorders like panic, anxiety, anger, and depression. Because remember, neurotransmitters are made in your gut and sent to your brain. And if you have a lack of those, you're going to feel it in your brain. The eighth thing is food sensitivities. If you feel like you're allergic to everything, a leaky gut could be letting undigested food particles and other irritants into the bloodstream and triggering an allergic reaction and sensitivities. Number nine is hormonal imbalances. If your hormones are out of whack and causing issues like irregular periods, fertility problems, low libido, inability to orgasm, cravings, moodiness, or explosive moods, it could be time to take a look at your leaky gut. And number 10 is sleep disorders. So the inability to fall asleep and stay asleep. It's directly related to your gut health. 

Now, there are many reasons for this, including decreased serotonin production, which I just mentioned, affects your brain. It's mainly produced in the gut. Also, circadian rhythm and gut are closely connected, and a disruption in the gut is a disruption in the rhythm. So there are 10 things, 10 leaky gut non-digestive symptoms. None of those were bloating, constipation, diarrhea, abdominal pain, indigestion, or heartburn. All of those can lead you to feeling like you've got low energy like you've got this middle-aged deficiency syndrome I talked about. And that syndrome in my community, middle-aged deficiency syndrome hits, it sets in somewhere in your forties and just keeps going all the way through life. That is characterized by low energy, brain symptoms, digestive symptoms like a digestive cluster and mood cluster, anxiety, depression, and anger up and down. So if that's you, I would really consider getting your gut checked out. Getting to the root cause of this and getting down to the bottom of it. And during the summit, you're learning all kinds of new tools to help you solve your symptoms. You're hearing from experts all over the world who have the ability to help you, myself included.

Welcome to the Silent Killers Summit, where my guests and I are uncovering the root causes and giving you solutions for chronic inflammatory symptoms and diseases. I'm your host, Laura Frontiero. Today, I'm going to give you a super quick talk on the 10 baffling symptoms of a leaky gut that all lead to inflammation, low energy, brain fog, pain, rapid aging, weight gain, and more. I call this cluster of symptoms MADS, middle-aged deficiency syndrome because they tend to show up in middle age and carry on throughout life. And I'm mad about it, and I hope you're mad about it, too, because we should not be dealing with this and there are solutions. So the reason these gut symptoms are baffling is because none of them are actually digestive symptoms. So most people think they don't have a gut microbiome problem if they don't have issues like indigestion, bloating, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and constipation. So I want you to hear what I'm saying there. And what I'm suggesting to you is that there are symptoms of leaky gut and gut microbiome disruption that are not related to gut symptoms at all.
