HOW DO YOU KNOW, YOU HAVE LEAKY GUT SYNDROME?



When the tight junctions of intestinal walls become loose, the gut becomes more permeable, which may allow bacteria and toxins to pass from the gut into the bloodstream. ... Symptoms of leaky gut syndrome include bloating, food sensitivities, fatigue, digestive issues, and skin problems and pain. 

So, how do you know you have leaky gut syndrome? This irritation can start or continue the inflammation cycle that leads to intestinal permeability. Signs you have a leaky gut: According to Dr. Leo Galland, director of the Foundation for Integrated Medicine, the following symptoms might be signs of leaky gut:

 Chronic diarrhea, 

Constipation

Gas or bloating.

This Bomb Works!

I CALL THIS MY COCONUT COFFEE BOMB

I know, there are many other names for this concoction, but when I started taking the mixture, the results were instantaneous, like an exploding bomb! I take it on an empty stomach, first thing in the morning. 

This is when we all tend to feel a bit peckish, it's no mystery, as this is because you had just woken up from a 5 to 8 hour fast. Don't eat anything at this point, just sip your coffee bomb. Before my cup is empty, I start to experience satiety for the first time ever. The cup now finished, I'm ready to tackle the days work on the laptop! But, that's all wrong, as I'm usually starving in-spite of the coffee. I ask my wife to indulge me in this exercise, and go ahead with her own breakfast, I will eat as soon as I'm feeling hungry.

It didn't happen! 

A while later, she calls me to lunch, LUNCH!!! What? I had skipped breakfast.
There are many variations and in a world of fake everything including fake news it's refreshing to find a few things that really work, one of those is this coffee bomb of mine.

I became a type 2 diabetic 30 years ago and lost a leg and also my eyesight several years ago. Oh, and I was also diagnosed with emphysema  and with malaria, and was actually dead for several minutes and miraculously restored to life, so, with so many lots things to have almost died from, tends to make one way less of a risk taker and less of a cynic.

 I'm still here and if you had seen how easily a human slips off into the other side, one tends to become acutely aware of ones fragile mortality and as such, expects to be taken seriously, so,  that's the thing I really want to share with someone who comes across this website of mine, namely this, if you have a quest to find someone, whose word you can take at face value, without any need for  to verify credentials, I'm your man.

MY COFFEE BOMB RECIPE: 

1. Tablespoon of raw honey
1 Tablespoon of 100% natural coconut oil
1. Teaspoon of cinnamon powder.
A hot cup of your favorite coffee-black and unsweetened
Add 1 tablespoon raw honey
Add 1 tablespoon 100% coconut oil
Add 1 teaspoon of cinnamon powder

METHOD: stir the contents, either by hand or using a high-speed mixer until frothy. This latter way tastes fabulous.



SUGAR CONTAINS: Glucose. period!

WHILE RAW HONEY: Is an entirely different ball game, here is the breakdown:

Vitamins: What are they and what do they do?



Vitamins are organic compounds that are needed in small quantities to sustain life. Most vitamins need to come from food.

This is because the human body either does not produce enough of them, or it does not produce any at all.
Each organism has different vitamin requirements. For example, humans need to consume vitamin C, or ascorbic acid, but dogs do not. Dogs can produce, or synthesize, enough vitamin C for their own needs, but humans cannot.
People need to get most of their vitamin D from exposure to sunlight, because it is not available in large enough quantities in food. However, the human body can synthesize it when exposed to sunlight.
Different vitamins have different roles, and they are needed in different quantities.
This article explains what vitamins are, what they do, and which foods provide each type. Follow the links for more information about each type of vitamin.
Fast facts on vitamins
Here are some key points about vitamins. More detail and supporting information is in the main article.
  • There are 13 known vitamins.
  • Vitamins are either water-soluble or fat-soluble.
  • Fat-soluble vitamins are easier for the body to store than water-soluble.
  • Vitamins always contain carbon, so they are described as "organic."
  • Food is the best source of vitamins, but some people may be advised by a physician to use supplements.

What are vitamins?

Fruits and vegetables
Fruits and vegetables are good sources of a range of vitamins.
A vitamin is one of a group of organic substances that is present in minute amounts in natural foodstuffs. Vitamins are essential to normal metabolism. If we do not take enough of any kind of vitamin, certain medical conditions can result.
A vitamin is both:
  • an organic compound, which means it contains carbon
  • an essential nutrient that body cannot produce enough of and which it needs to get from food
There are currently 13 recognized vitamins.

Fat-soluble and water-soluble vitamins

Vitamins are either fat-soluble or water-soluble.

Fat-soluble vitamins

Fat-soluble vitamins are stored in the fatty tissues of the body and the liver. Vitamins A, D, E, and K are fat-soluble. These are easier to store than water-soluble vitamins, and they can stay in the body as reserves for days, and sometimes months.
Fat-soluble vitamins are absorbed through the intestinal tract with the help of fats, or lipids.

Water-soluble vitamins

Water-soluble vitamins do not stay in the body for long. The body cannot store them, and they are soon excreted in urine. Because of this, water-soluble vitamins need to be replaced more often than fat-soluble ones.
Vitamin C and all the B vitamins are water soluble.

Types

Here are the different types of vitamins.

Vitamin A

Chemical names: Retinol, retinal, and four carotenoids, including beta carotene.
  • It is fat soluble.
  • Deficiency may cause night-blindness and keratomalacia, an eye disorder that results in a dry cornea.
  • Good sources include: Liver, cod liver oil, carrots, broccoli, sweet potato, butter, kale, spinach, pumpkin, collard greens, some cheeses, egg, apricot, cantaloupe melon, and milk.

Vitamin B

Chemical name: thiamine.
  • It is water soluble.
  • Deficiency may cause beriberi and Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome.
  • Good sources include: yeast, pork, cereal grains, sunflower seeds, brown rice, whole-grain rye, asparagus, kale, cauliflower, potatoes, oranges, liver, and eggs.


Chemical name: Riboflavin
Vitamin B2

  • It is water soluble

  • Deficiency may cause anemia, peripheral neuropathy, or damage to parts of the nervous system other than the brain and spinal cord.
  • Good sources include: meats, bananas, whole-grains, vegetables, and nuts. When milk is dried, it loses about half of its B6. Freezing and canning can also reduce content.

Vitamin B7

Chemical name: Biotin
  • it is water soluble.
  • Deficiency may cause dermatitis or enteritis, or inflammation of the intestine.
  • Good sources include: egg yolk, liver, some vegetables.


Chemical names: Folic acid, folinic acid

Vitamin B12

Chemical names: Cyanocobalamin, hydroxocobalamin, methylcobalamin
  • It is water soluble.
  • Deficiency may cause megaloblastic anemia, a condition where bone marrow produces unusually large, abnormal, immature red blood cells.
  • Good sources include: fish, shellfish, meat, poultry, eggs, milk and dairy products, some fortified cereals and soy products, as well as fortified nutritional yeast.
Vegans are advised to take B12 supplements.

MY BIO FOR BETTER HEALTH

Hello, I'm Andre' Hartslief "I finally discovered, that man's whole purpose in life, is not to do the right things in life or to be good,
 to be successful or famous. Our entire purpose in life, is to express divinity through everyone of us.
 How we do that, is by transforming ourselves completely, from an old state of existence to a new state and when we start
removing those limitations. It is only, then, that the intelligence which  gives us all life, namely, the source,
begins to express itself unbridled through us.

The One Stop Solution For Gorging on Food Without Feeling Any Guilt


The most typical reaction I get when I speak about Intermittent Fasting is skeptic laced with disbelief...
This is because it seems like something that they find as puzzling, risky or daunting. This reaction can’t be faulted, because the Intermittent Fasting can be done in the wrong way too. So...
Let us first learn how to do the Intermittent Fasting in the right manner.
My method of Intermittent Fasting is very simple. It is actually developed by Brendon who is a popular international writer as well as a known expert in all things related to nutrition. You will be learning more about him in a minute. This is how it works...
Once or twice a week I do not eat at all for a specific pre-set amount of time. This time limit is dependent on my goal and my amount of bodyfat. Simple as that... and it's only EVER once or twice a week, certainly not more!
And get this... other than the days you fast, you can enjoy completely normal meals on all days. Now..
emember what we talked about genetics and how our Great Grandparents had their cycles of high and low calories. Really that’s all you’re doing when you practice Intermittent Fasting.
It is perfectly normal for those who are new to this amazing and powerful technique for weight loss as well as health improvement to feel limited when they think about not eating at all. But the truth is, it is the other way around.
If you think back, you used to always feel hungry during the entire time of diet, right?
On the other hand, when following this method of Intermittent Fasting, you feel hungry only once or maximum two days of week.
Get the power of fasting here and get started right away:



Hunger No Longer Controls You






With this new strategy, all of a sudden hunger did not have any power over me. I wasn’t fearful or worried about hunger anymore...
This is because a slight bit of hunger... the smallest amount of self-discipline... unleashed a world of freedom for me.
The method I’ve been mentioning about till now is a specific and precise way to do something that nutritionist’s call as Intermittent Fasting (IF). However, my method of doing it is quite unlike what you may have heard about. So keep reading...
Because what I am about to explain is the method that helped me out of the never ending cycle of rebound weight gain. It allowed me to disregard all the irrational diet rules. And now I finally enjoy a steady, unchanging weight and a slender body I’m proud of.
And it will do provide the same help for you too, as it has for over 54,000 other folks who are using the simple nutritional modifications I learned from a guy named Brendon.


Stop Fixating On Food If You Want To Lose Weight


You tend to get hungry when you don’t eat, correct?....
While trying to follow specific diets, doesn’t it feel like you’re hungry all the time?
A diet would seem like a long marathon that you are running and the finish line just keeps getting pushed away. There’s never an option when you are allowed to just NOT be hungry. Now..
Think of the scenario when you are hungry only once or twice a week for a limited amount of time...
Rest of the time, you are never hungry or deprived of specific food categories. You don’t have to even think about what food type or calories to eat.
Doesn’t that sound like freedom???
When I began to use this method that I’m going to show you, it was like a burden being lifted.
During its course, I also found out something about hunger as well.
