My health issues include digestion, immune problems, and mental health challenges. I’ve talked about gut health before, so let’s discuss leaky gut. Here’s the deal with leaky gut: 95% of Western medicine or Western diets don’t get enough fiber. If you don’t have enough fiber in your diet, you can’t create the right bacteria in your gut to heal it. As a result, 95% of the population in Western societies are likely to have leaky gut syndrome. Leaky gut leads to various other problems, including insomnia, anxiety, depression, and fatigue. All the data is out there. So, how do we clean up the gut? Intermittent fasting is a powerful tool. Eating two meals a day or occasionally one meal a day can help, but when you are eating, focus on nutritionally dense foods. That’s also the best time to take your vitamins and supplements, all within that feeding window.
