I started this book as a sceptic on the type of advice that would be given but finished it (as an IBS sufferer) with hope that the solutions would work for me. A well written book with lots of true life examples and common sense to resolving numerous ailments. I would recommend it to anybody looking for a solution to numerous "gut" issues.

I love reading books about health and this one was interesting and easy to read. Heal Your Leaky Gut by Dr. David Brownstein was a quick and informative read about all things gut-related. It’s surprising how many illnesses start in the gut and how modifying the diet can help turn poor health around.

The author takes us through the functions of the stomach and various illnesses relating to leaky gut syndrome.

Leaky gut syndrome (LGS) occurs when the lining of the small intestine is damaged, allowing foreign compounds to escape into your bloodstream, which weakens your immune system and triggers autoimmune reactions.

Traditional physicians don’t understand what LGS is—much less how to diagnose and treat it. In fact, it is estimated that more than 80 percent of people with chronic illnesses have leaky gut, an overgrowth of bad bacteria, or not enough good bacteria.

I highly recommend this book if you are suffering from something and don’t know where to begin. And even if you aren’t, it’s a great guide to read.

This is one of the best Leak Gut reference books that I have ever read. I never knew that a leaky gut could cause acne, skin problems, allergies, achy mustles/joints and more health issues. Dr. Brownstein explains all the tests he requests and why, he shares the diatary questionnaire that he asks patients, he goes into detail about how each organ in your gut works and what its purpose is. And the best part of the book is his Healthy Gut Diet plan that he recommends. If you have been diagnosed with any of those aliments or Leaky Gut, this is the book for you. I guarantee you will enjoy knowing the how and whys to the Leaky Gut and best of all knowing how to cure it.
