Why your disease ‘on/off ’ switch is here
But why the gut, of all places?
Here’s why. Just about every human being is sensitive to at least one
type of food.
For any individual – you and me included – there are one or two
foods we could eat that are going to cause a far-reaching problem
within our guts.
I’m not talking about an innocent stomach upset. Or some harmless
gas.
I’m talking about a food that prompts the immune system to say, No
th anks… and so spark oy an immune reaction within the gut.
For complex reasons, the immune system sees that particular food
not as nutrition but as an invader.
So it does what immune systems do: it attacks it, creating
in}ammation wherever in the gut that food happens to be.
As soon as your immune system reacts to that particular food in your
gut… you’ve just activated your disease ‘on’ switch.
Keep eating that particular food type and your immune system will
keep attacking it. Unfortunately the in}ammation it uses to attack
the food also attacks the surrounding gut lining.
And this is the key to your disease ‘on’ switch.
Because that in}ammation starts to wear away the tight junctions
that seal your gut. And now we’re in trouble.
Your disease switch is now ‘on’
These junctions keep food safely inside your gut.
They also ensure the trillions of bacteria that live naturally in the
human gut stay in the gut. But as the junctions start to wear down
