Use a simple approach known as the 5R protocol to heal. Leaky gut is a condition characterized by increased intestinal permeability, and often associated with changes to gut bacteria.
Here are the 5 steps.
☝️REMOVE. Shift away from the standard American diet by removing gut triggers like gluten, dairy, alcohol, GMOs, chocolate, sugar, stress, and basically anything that makes your gut not feel good. You may also need treatment for parasites or gut infection to remove them. We also aim to, with the help of our care providers remove any medicines that we can.
✌️REPLACE digestive enzymes, acid, vitamins and minerals that have been depleted. Supplements like betaine HCl may be needed if there is too little stomach acid. Digestive enzymes, especially pancreatic enzymes may be needed. Chronic digestive disease may be a root cause of nutrient deficiencies, and B12, vitamin D, zinc, magnesium, iron, or calcium and supplementation is a must.
3️⃣ REPOPULATE. You cannot heal the gut without carefully selecting probiotics and prebiotics. Supplements are basically a must, and they need to be strain specific and super high quality. Add in foods like leeks, artichokes, garlic, onions and bananas for prebiotic fibers and fermented foods like kimchi, kefir or kombucha to get more probiotic food.
4️⃣ REPAIR the lining of the gut. Feed the cells of the lining of your gut glutamine, and repair with supplements like arginine, selenium, molybdenum, aloe, slippery elm, or high quality collagen.
🖐REBALANCE. There is not a problem in the world not caused by stress or worsened by stress. Your gut will absolutely never heal under chronic stress. Supplements like glycine can help build serotonin, theanine can help increase GABA, and corn grass can help you fall asleep without sleep pattern disrupting melatonin.
Your gut can heal. And when it does….everything else begins to heal.
You deserve to be healthy. Here’s to you taking the steps to make it happen.

Well, isn't this exciting?!
I never thought.... A published author! Yes. I can now officially call myself that!
I am in a business group and we talked about ways to share our story last fall, 2020. Some people were writing books while others were sharing their stories in different ways, as it applied to them and their business or goals. I had some inspiration early this year that maybe I would write my story and set the date for October 2021 for release.
Well, as we know, life gets busy and sometimes plans change. #reallife #momlife #lifehappens
It was around August that I remembered that goal and thought to myself "Well, I guess that is not going to happen this year!" Life as too busy to realistically set aside the time to make this goal a reality.
Then, I saw Jo talk about a book collaboration in our business group. I submitted my story, unsure if it fit with the collection she was creating but she was quick to include me in her collaboration. The coolest part- the release date: October 2021!
This simple shift reminded me how God works. We have goals and desires of our heart! We make plans but God directs our steps. It may not have been time to do a book. Maybe I needed to learn more about the process (and it has been a process and I have learned A LOT!). Maybe there is more I need to learn or ways I need to grow before I share "everything" of my story. Or maybe I don't need to tell my story in the way I first envisioned! However, my STORY is HERE.
In case you missed it, the EBook is dropping October 26. If you have already Pre-Ordered your copy, it will be dropping into your E-collection on the 26th! AND, I am thrilled to say that TODAY is THE DAY for the paperback! It has now been added to Amazon and you can get that paper copy now! Whoo hoo! Go get your paperback, EBook or BOTH HERE!
I would LOVE to hear your thoughts about the book. It is not just my story but a powerful collaboration of 21 stories of how we all had a physical, mental and/or emotional challenge that was overcome through our Absolute Will. I hope you will find these stories enlightening and inspiring and that you will share how this collaboration has impacted you after reading it.
With Lots of Love,
Judith #publishedauthor
