The father of clinical ecology Dr. Theron Randolph’s research showed that 9 out of 10 people suffer from food sensitivities.
Food sensitivities are now thought to be the leading cause of gut inflammation which the research suggests leads to leaky gut.
The symptoms of leaky gut are very broad. This makes it difficult to know with certainty if your symptoms are due to leaky gut, or some other issue.
Leaky gut is classified as a syndrome, meaning it has more than one identifying feature or symptom. Rather, leaky gut is a collection of symptoms that suggest you have leaky gut, but do not conclusively confirm that you do.
Discovering for certain if your symptoms are caused by a leaky gut issue can be a confusing process.

Fortunately, you don't have to have a 'diagnosis' of leaky gut in order to relieve this laundry list of symptoms. At the same time you'll be promoting a healthy and resilient gut.
And, thankfully, the natural remedy to relieve symptoms associated with leaky gut is inexpensive, as well as easy to implement and, yes, essential oils can help.
The #1 anti-inflammatory healing oil for regenerating injured tissue, i.e. leaky gut, is Helichrysum.
