Leaky Gut Part 3 – Diet and Lifestyle Approaches

DIET SUGGESTIONS
-Diet is an integral part of any leaky gut protocol!
-Eliminate processed foods, grains, starches and sugars.
-Eat a species appropriate diet (raw being the best choice). Beyond being species appropriate, raw food diets are full of enzymes and are easily digested. They don’t contain processed ingredients, help improve overall health and aid to heal the gut. The next best choice would be freeze-dried or dehydrated foods.

LIFESTYLE SUGGESTIONS
-Try to avoid pesticide-based flea products
-Reduce routine vaccinations by opting for titre testing instead
-Find natural alternatives to anti-inflammatory drugs
-Identify and reduce your pet’s stress
-Avoid antibiotics when possible, but if antibiotic use is a must, rebuild the gut flora with probiotics
