Be Nice To Your Digestive System | by Brian Johnson “One common problem with a Spent digestive system is that the lining of the gut (your digestive system) is damaged. The gut’s lining is extremely thin, often just one cell thick. This damage can be extremely problematic because 70 to 80 percent of your immune system is found in your digestive tract. When this delicate lining is damaged or worn down by a poor diet or large food particles, bacteria and toxins that should normally stay in your gut’s inner tube pass through it into the bloodstream, where the immune system must deal with them. These leaking particles tax your immune system. Thus, with a poorly functioning digestive system, you don’t just get digestive symptoms, you also get an exhausted immune system. To add insult to injury, you can also get pain. An overactive immune system can lead to inflammation in the body. Your immune system creates swelling to fight hurt and unhealthy cells inside your body. This is one of the reasons why your body feels so cranky and achy when you are spent.” ~ Frank Lipman, M.D. from Revive
