“Wellness isn’t simply an absence of illness”
Heal Your Tissues The third step is to repair the epithelial lining. Antibiotics, preservatives and sugar have allowed a fauna of pathogens that have been eating away at your intestinal lining, 24/7 for years. This tissue needs to be healed. Take a mixture of herbs that are designed to heal the tissues, increase mu- cus to protect the region, and reduce histamine sensitivity allowing the intestines to re-build a healthy effective lining. We would suggest the following: Plantain, Licorice, Aloe Vera, Pepper- mint, Marshmallow root and Slippery Elm bark. These can be encapsulated or made into a tea. Again, taking the capsules or drinking the tea on an empty stomach is best. Also, be sure to include some very basic building blocks like 2000mg of Vitamin C, 10,000 IUs of Vitamin D and a good B-complex daily. The GI tract is critical not only to absorption of
nutrients through digestion, but also to the prop- er operation of your immune system. A non-func- tional or poorly functioning digestive system can cause a myriad of health problems as it produces nutritional deficiencies and a compromised im- mune system. Diseases such as arthritis, auto-im- mune disorders, and many skin conditions have been traced back to problems of the gut. This is because damaged digestive tissues are exposed to food and not protected by a mucus layer. This produces a histamine response that the immune system perceives as an invasion. Obviously, con- ditions such as irritable bowel syndrome, SIBO and Crohn’s are problems of the gut. Without a di- gestive system, you would die. Why then is it hard for us to appreciate that with a poorly working digestive system we will be in poor health? Kill, re-seed, restore. Put your gut back on track and watch your health improve. •
