When the microbiome becomes disrupted, the intestinal wall cracks... and everything can go wrong. Pesticides, tobacco, alcohol, medications, stress, gluten—these everyday elements can disrupt your gut flora and create what's called intestinal hyperpermeability—in other words, "holes" in your intestine.
What Are These "Holes" Exactly?
The intestinal wall is supposed to be semi-permeable: it allows nutrients to pass through while blocking toxins, pathogenic bacteria, and unwanted molecules. When the microbiome is imbalanced, this barrier becomes porous. The result:
- Toxins pass into the bloodstream
- Pathogenic bacteria invade the body
- The immune system goes into overdrive
- Chronic inflammation sets in
The Consequences Are Serious
A "leaky" intestine can be the source of:
- Autoimmune diseases (Crohn's, rheumatoid arthritis, thyroiditis)
- Allergies and food hypersensitivities
- Chronic candidiasis
- Neurological disorders (Alzheimer's, Parkinson's)
- Digestive cancers
- Chronic fatigue, anxiety, depression

The Role of Microbiome in Repair
Fortunately, it's possible to "patch up" these holes by acting directly on your microbiome. A healthy microbiome:
- Strengthens the intestinal barrier
- Regulates inflammation
- Protects neurons
- Reduces cardiovascular and metabolic risks
The Solutions Are in Your Gut
Recent studies show that microbial diversity is a key factor in longevity. With a balanced microbiome, we can prevent up to 80% of chronic diseases.
