By improving gut integrity and
decreasing gut permeability, the animal's sensitivity to foods can be greatly reduced.
Indeed there are good reasons to suspect legume intake should
decrease gut permeability, as polyphenols, fermentable oligogsaccharides, and resistant starch from beans modulate gut microbiota to favor beneficial strains like Bifidobacteria over pathobionts.

These probiotic foods reduce inflammation in the
gut and
decrease permeability of the intestinal lining that can promote digestive diseases (4).
The researchers also noted signs of increased
gut permeability — or leaky
gut — and a
decrease in the diversity of
gut bacteria and anti-inflammatory bacterial metabolites, such as short - chain fatty acids, said Jairam K.P. Vanamala, associate professor of food sciences, Penn State.
All that I could find regarding bovine colostrum and «leaky
gut» in humans was one study showing that bovine colostrum is associated with an increase in intestinal
permeability in runners, and another showing that it may
decrease intestinal
permeability in athletes.
For instance, a
decrease in bifidobacteria populations leads to intestinal hyper -
permeability, or leaky
gut, which in turn leads to the translocation of metabolic byproducts, food antigens, bacteria, and lipopolysaccharide (also known as LPS, an immunogenic cell wall component from Gram - negative bacteria) across the
gut barrier into systemic circulation (Rapin & Wiernsperger, 2010).
High intensity exercise compromises intestinal blood flow and can lead to increased intestinal
permeability,
gut damage, impaired
gut function and
decreased nutrient absorption.
Dysbiosis, or an overgrowth of bad
gut bacteria, contributes to increased intestinal
permeability, inflammation, candida, parasites, weight gain, a
decrease in immune health (the majority of the immune system is in the
gut, after all!)

gut microbiota
