Understanding Leaky Gut

“Leaky gut” or intestinal permeability occurs when the lining of the small intestine becomes damaged, allowing undigested food particles, toxins, and pathogens to pass into the bloodstream. This can trigger inflammation, immune responses, food sensitivities, and digestive issues.

Contributors to leaky gut include chronic stress, poor diet, infections, medications, and dysbiosis (gut flora imbalance). Healing the gut lining is essential for restoring proper digestion, reducing systemic inflammation, and supporting immune, skin, brain, and hormone health.

Key Strategies for Gut Repair

• Support Digestive Function – Use enzymes to break down proteins, carbs, and fats for better absorption.
• Repair the Gut Lining – Nutrients like glutamine help restore mucosal integrity.
• Balance the Microbiome – Use probiotics to replenish beneficial bacteria and crowd out pathogens.
• Remove Irritants – Avoid processed foods, gluten, dairy, and alcohol to reduce gut inflammation.
• Nourish with Whole Foods – Eat fiber-rich, anti-inflammatory meals to promote healing and diversity.

By combining targeted supplements, clean nutrition, and lifestyle support, you can restore gut integrity, reduce inflammation, and promote full-body health.

Glutamine

Think of this as Neosporin for your gut. Pure L-Glutamine, a vital amino acid, helps seal and heal the intestinal lining, supports immune function, and reduces gut inflammation. Also aids in muscle repair and recovery.

Recommended Use: Mix 1 scoop with water. Take on an empty stomach in the morning.

Super Probiotics

A high-potency blend of 15 billion CFU from multiple strains to restore microbial balance, enhance immune function, and support digestion and nutrient absorption.

Recommended Use: 1 caplet per day with food

PaleoProtein Chocolate

Our gut-friendly protein powders are all gluten-free and dairy-free. These powders provide a high-protein, easy-to-digest meal replacement to nourish without irritating the digestive tract.

Recommended Use: 1 scoop per day. Mix with dairy-free drink, nut butter, and/or fruit.

Digestive Enzymes

A full-spectrum enzyme blend including amylase, protease, lipase, lactase, and cellulase to support optimal breakdown and absorption of nutrients, reducing bloating and digestive strain.

Recommended Use: 1 capsule with meals (do not need take with protein smoothies/shakes.)

Food Sensitivity Test

Identifying hidden food triggers is critical to repairing a leaky gut and reducing systemic inflammation. Our kit includes the Vibrant Wellness Food Sensitivity Profile 1, an at-home dried blood spot test that measures your body’s immune response (IgG, IgA) to 96 common foods.

This comprehensive panel helps uncover food sensitivities that may be contributing to gut irritation, chronic inflammation, skin issues, fatigue, and digestive complaints.

Key Benefits:

• Simple at-home collection — no lab visit required
• Tests for sensitivity to 96 foods commonly eaten in the Western diet
• Helps identify hidden dietary triggers to support gut healing
• Science-backed results with 95–100% accuracy
• Includes detailed, easy-to-read results to help guide your food choices

What to Expect:
Collect a small blood sample at home using the provided kit, mail it to the lab, and receive your personalized results directly — no doctor’s appointment needed. Results will highlight foods to consider eliminating or rotating to support optimal gut health and reduce inflammation.

Note: No fasting or special diet changes are required before testing. For best results, continue eating your typical diet prior to collection.
