Take control and reverse the cycle.

Every day, millions of Americans are using over the counter and prescription pain relievers to treat their arthritis.

The relief is temporary and sends the patient on a nasty cycle of using the pain relievers for the arthritis while sacrificing other aspects of their health.

The drugs do nothing to halt the progression of the joint damage and only act as a mask to the pain. On top of the lack of effectiveness of these drugs, they are contributing to chronic and auto immune conditions.

The pain medications cause continuous damage to the GI tissue intensifying Leaky Gut Syndrome.

In Leaky Gut Syndrome, undigested food particles and toxins cross the intestinal barrier entering the blood stream. This causes the immune system to produce antibodies and execute a full scale attack on the particles. When the immune system becomes so over run, the body begins to attack its own tissues and not just the undigested food particles.

The pain of arthritis worsens and more and more joint tissue is destroyed. This is a vicious cycle and the root of the arthritis is not only being ignored, but being made worse.

We offer the most precise and comprehensive testing available to patients to understand their intestinal microbiome. If you think you have leaky gut give us a call and let's find out.   

GOOD GUT Probiotics + immune, GOOD GUT Repair and GOOD GUT Detox.  GOOD GUT Probiotics contains colostrum which is the only proven ingredient in human and animal studies to prevent and heal leaky gut.  It contains antibodies, immunoglobulins and growth factors needed to heal the gut lining.  It provides nutrition and hormones for cell repair and are effective against a wide range of pathogens.  It kills pathogens by destroying their cell membranes and competes for binding on the intestinal wall.  

Colostrum must contain high levels of the active components and it must have a phospholipid coating to pass through digestion to reach the damaged cells.  Bio-effective colostrum has to maintain its integrity and be verified for bioactivity; otherwise, it is worthless.  GOOD GUT Products meet those requirements.
