In this video, we’re going to talk about the seven symptoms of leaky gut. A very thin, single layer of cells acts as a barrier between the inside and the outside of your intestines. The intestines provide protection and absorption of 90 percent of all your nutrients. They also contain a mucus layer, microbes, and 80 percent of your immune system.
Medical professionals typically recommend increased soluble fiber intake to fix leaky gut when you should actually do the opposite. The carnivore diet is the best leaky gut diet. More fiber creates more inflammation.
Medical professionals also do not point to diet as a primary cause or solution of a leaky gut. Most diseases are triggered by something in your gut, which has everything to do with your diet.
Broad-spectrum antibiotics can also affect gut health. Tampering with your gut microbiome can have serious consequences. You need the microbes in your gut to help you digest, and you don’t want them to become pathogenic.
Glyphosate is an herbicide sprayed on most GMO and conventional foods patented as an antibiotic, so it has an antibiotic effect on your body. Whole grains are also recommended, but they can wreak havoc on a leaky gut and cause an immune reaction. Seed oils are another major contributor to leaky gut.
Here are seven signs of a leaky gut:
1. Abdominal pain, cramping
2. Constipation, diarrhea
3. Fatigue
4. Brain fog
5. Mood issues, anxiety
6. Skin inflammation
7. Autoimmune diseases
When you have an autoimmune response, your body considers normal tissues foreign or pathogenic. If your body sees your thyroid as an invader, your thyroid will become inflamed. This is known as Hashimoto’s and starts with inflammation and a leaky gut.
The carnivore diet for a few months can help repair a leaky gut by removing the foods causing inflammation. Glutamine and glycine can also help with leaky gut repair.

Thanks for watching! I hope this answers your questions about leaky gut. I’ll see you in the next video.
Thank You; excellent work as always 👊🌷🏆
Thank you Dr.BERG
I agree with Dr. Stephanie Seneff, especially, glyphosate as the root cause of all this junk like “leaky gut,” the methylation, and sulphation process, etc. ❤ Her genius shines through during conversations! If you notice how fast she’s able to process information, it seems that she’s talking over people, but I call it having a clear brain! Love her! Thanks, Dr. Berg! Have a great Saturday, everyone! 🙂
She’s a computer scientist specialised in natural language processing
the root cause is stress, that can be from anything but mostly trauma. once the body is stressed then environmental toxins (things like mold, pesticides etc) can start causing major damage
Amazing information.Thank you !
Exactly and you’re totally right, Dr Berg. Gut microbiome plays a fundamental role within body function, it should be healthy and properly balanced, the least we want to do is to mess with that. Thank you for all your insightful throughly well researched and helpful advice 🙏🏻
Amazing that 1st time of heard about it was in 2017 but last few years finally info is getting out

Carnivore might be the Best method. But the Dr Grundy Lectin Free Diet worked for me and a lot of people too and is way easier.
I recently lost my wife because leaky gut and severe inflammation. She had all of those symptoms along with parasitic infections. We were told to go see a psychiatrist and would not help at all in part of our parasitic infection and prescribed prednisone for the inflammation
I just lost my whole word because of incompetence in our so called healthcare system
Dziękuję Fidel ..
@@gradycarter6473😢So sorry 😞.
@@gradycarter6473 im sorry to hear this
I know someone who had an incredible recovery from IBD by strictly following the Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD). This person ate only meat, unprocessed aged cheese, fruits and vegetables. All symptoms disappeared; the prescribed medications only lessened the symptoms.
That’s true. I followed this and I feel better.
I followed SCD for my daughter who had undiagnosed bowel issues after a viral infection, symptoms gone in 10 days
Even used to make the yoghurt at the prescribed temperature and time
the question is did the symptoms came back after he introduced carbs?
The milk issue relates to the way we process milk in the US. It’s different if you drink it right from the cow. I’d like a video where you address this. People drank animal milk for thousands of years, but now it’s a problem, because our government makes sure it’s processed.
Milk is pasteurized because of the long supply chain and human is the only animal that drinks milk after the infant stage
I agree with you, milk is a natural nutrient dense perfect food, the first food of many lives, how can it be causing damage now? It is because milk is altered, or because our gut microbiome is damaged. I healed from “intolerance” by drinking only natural milk and eating natural yogurt, this brings back to our bodies the milk processing good bacteria.
@@containedhurricanetoo many people are healed by drinking RAW milk ,raw A2/A2 milk to take your logic seriously…. It’s a great “ideological blindness” to follow a line of thought to a “logic” conclusion…but logic is like a very sharp knife used one way it’s a useful tool used another way and it causes needless destruction and self harm. check yourself.
@@JuliElisabettyes.
@@containedhurricane no, no, if they have access to it, dogs, cats, even chickens drink milk (I’ve seen that). And eat cheese. They can taste that it is a nutrient dense food.
That’s when I started getting really sick years ago when I thought I wanted to start eating healthy with wheat bread etc.
You are always spot on. We love you. From Zimbabwe 🇿🇼
Ten years ago I was finally diagnosed with gluten intolerance. This means that I had been poisoning myself continuously for decades and had all the symptoms described above, which got worse and worse before the diagnosis. Since then I have been gluten-free and the symptoms have disappeared or at least decreased significantly. I can only strongly advise anyone with unclear symptoms to get tested for intolerances!
What he was saying is that your gluten intolerance is a result of long time gut issues. So you need to heal your gut in order to address the root of the problem
No it’s NOT the wheat 🙄 It’s the chemical called Roundup they spray the crops with before the cut the wheat so it doesn’t dull the blades 🙄😖
Same here! My first diagnosis was IBS. Then three months after that diagnosis I had an emergency gallbladder removal. It’s all been downhill. I’m allergic to everything and peanuts and meat and gluten milk and milk and you name it a battle since. But I am on protein plant powder. I’m mixing milk and I feel much better! I have to self treat itself diagnosed myself because doctors are worthless, except Dr. Berg , lol
I do take doctor Berg, TDCA DIGESTIVE ENZYME. i’m starting to feel much better.
@@linden5576 also taken out fuller here. I added digestive enzyme , as well as ox bile, and probiotics. Now my stool is perfect, and feel I can absorb much better than before.
We need a giant class action lawsuit against all the pharmaceutical companies.
They control the courts too.
The corporations control the courts too.
F YouTube
Yeah and then we could write a letter to the Government about all those taxes😅
Just stop taking their products
Something I’ve been through. Fixed it with carnivore. Other problems cleared up as well. Thank you
How long were you on Carnivore?
@@awa3374
Nine months and counting
On the same path. Stay strong 💪
@@spades5174
Yes. It looks like things can only improve. Red meat is heavenly.
@The_Eric_Berg289
Thank you
Thank you. I’m on Canivore myself (6 months now), but these symptoms – lots of friends need to see this.
I recently was diagnosed with leaky gut by a functional medicine doctor and we subsequently found out we had a hidden mold problem in our house that started slowly over a year ago. I’ve eaten healthy keto over 8 years now and was quite sick and surprised. We ended up doing a whole house remediation. Diet is very important but so is environment.
So functional doctors are also looking for things in the environment? How did you test it
Thanks Doc! You’re one of the BEST!
Dr. Berg, I have watched your channel starting with being fat and sick, then Keto, then Carnivore, now mostly meat. Your information is always the most helpful. I have subscribed and then unsubscribed from so many other health channels but you have stood the test of time and results. You don’t just have 11 million plus followers…you have 11 million plus LOYAL followers. To quote Carly Simon, nobody does it better! Thank you for all your life changing information! Blessings to you and your family. ❤
I guess in the end, we all go back to being carnivore 😂
It’s just the lack of junk that makes you better. Eating just vegetables would have the same effect.. long term neither is healthy
@@jsmit9161 I like the carnivore diet
I’m having an anxiety attack listening to Dr. Berg, speak on this topic.
I could’ve corrected so easily if I would’ve known…
Finding root causes versus being ‘slapped’ with three different medication’s ?
Thank god for Dr. Berg🎉
EveryBody’s friend!
This is so interesting🎉
Had Hashimoto’s, diagnosed at 19 also had a third of my thyroid removed with nodule
At age 29, flipped to hypothyroid. Another nodule formed, & removed entire Thyroid. Also gained 80 pounds ! It was a nightmare still not fixed at 57 but I know so much more now.
since 10+ year I have been living in enormous emotional stress and I have developed IBS and later on hemorrhoids, enormous problems in the gut, allergies, malabsorption, tiredness, insomnia, anxiety, heartache and in consequence adrenal fatigue and the list went so long that I entered a terrible loop of being worried about my life. I gave up on toxic relationships, I started to prioritize my peace, sleep, hydration, taking nap during the day, doing massages, 18-20/6-4 intermittent fasting, liver cleansing with milk thristle, wormwood, no processed food, pure meat and veggies/fruits, fresh food only, omega-3, natural vit C, berberine, resveratrol, magnesium, sodium butyrate, colostrum, as I live in Poland and we have a great tradition of food fermentation I took the advantage of it. My gut started to heal. Thank you for all videos dr Berg, even though I am a biomedical PhD, so I know a lot about biology and nutrition – I always watch your videos and it keeps me going. All I want to emphasize is: PLEASE, take into account your emotional issues and stress or toxic environment – all that really keep all the issues being generated and even we take care of diet, we cancel all effort we try to put into the process of healing. Also parasite and microbiome imbalances were mostly the reason for my previous healing failure.
I am having the same issue always constipation and anxiety as well gastritis
