hey guys dr. Burke here in this video

we’re gonna talk about what’s really

behind leaky gut okay now you’ve

probably been told that well gluten will

cause it and that’s true that’s the

protein in wheat but what happens when

you cut out the gluten and you still

have the problem and it’s not clearing

up or people that really don’t consume

any gluten what’s the cause then there’s

something else it’s basically a version

of scurvy scurvy of your colon that’s a

vitamin C deficiency now I did some

videos on this with the arteries because

when you have scurvy of the arteries or

a vitamin C deficiency of the arteries

you can start having these little leak

leaks that go into the blood vessel and

it creates an immune reaction and it

starts getting formation of cholesterol

and calcium and then you get this clot

well a similar thing happens in the

colon when you see vitamin C controls

the collagen formation so when you’re

deficient in vitamin C you’ll get

symptoms of like bleeding gums that’s

because the capillaries are breaking

down and you’re getting bleeding okay

well guess what happens you have this

little lining a layer of cells in your

colon that allow food to be absorbed

through there like a route light

structure into the lymphatic system

where you absorb the nutrients normally

those little gaps are between 1 and 7

microns very very very small when you

have leaky gut it becomes 200 to 300

microns so you have these huge holes in

your colon and that’s gonna allow

undigested proteins to go through the

colon well guess what happens it doesn’t

get the stamp of approval through from

your immune system immigration and so

your body starts attacking and building

antibodies against those proteins

thus the massive food allergies

specifically to proteins and food

sensitivities to other foods as well but

here you have all these food allergies

simply because of this vitamin C

deficiency so you’ve got food allergies

and then you have immune reaction you

have inflammation scar tissue and now

you can’t absorb

after that because it’s it’s just not

working and you have these like these

malformed junctions okay so here’s a

question like why are you deficient in

vitamin C in the first place could it be

your diet is it because you don’t

consume enough vegetables you need a

good amount of vegetables at least seven

cups every single day to eat your

vitamin C when you take a supplement

most vitamin C comes in a synthetic

version ascorbic acid and some people

take that and think they’re getting the

whole vitamin C complex but in reality

vitamin C in nature comes in different

parts so if I were to show you right

here vitamin C has a very small

protective outer shells called ascorbic

acid but inside you have the P factors

about flavonoids okay ba flavonoids and

then you have the J factor since the

anti pneumonia vitamin increases oxygen

copper and vitamin K so you have a lot

of complex things inside that vitamin C

complex that’s how nature has designed

vitamin C the one that is really

specifically aligns to this problem it

is the deficiency in the P factor the

bowel flavonoids so when you take

ascorbic acid you don’t get any bowel

flavonoids okay so it really doesn’t

work so here’s some foods that are very

very important that are very high in

bioflavonoids to help heal that collagen

sprouted buckwheat okay you can get I

would get that as a supplement find a

supplement a sprouted buckwheat there’s

one from santa process called Sirota

plus that’s one there’s others on Amazon

I’ll put some some information down

below I don’t have any brands that I’m

recommending other than santa process is

a good one

cure certain is a bal flavonoid parsley

onions green tea

citrus lemons limes all these are very

high in bioflavonoids a lot of the

vegetables most of the vegetables

especially cruciferous are loaded with

ba flavonoids but let’s say you’re

consuming these foods but you’re still

having this problem

it could be it’s not that your diet is

deficient about NEC it’s that you have

insulin resistance you have too much

insulin you’re pre-diabetic or you have

symptoms of a subclinical pre-diabetes

which is not really showing up but you

have all the symptoms that see hi this

is gonna create a lot more insulin and

higher insulin will deplete your vitamin

C boom that’s one thing so you have to

correct that if that’s the problem the

other cause of vitamin C deficiencies is

smoking one cigarette if you smoke one

cigarette you’re gonna deplete at least

25 grams of vitamin C so here you’re

smoking and then you’re depleting it

you’re not knowing that’s causing that

can set you up for a vitamin C

deficiency okay so I just wanted to give

you some solutions to this problem right

here to actually help heal this and

these are some good things and also

you’re gonna have to stop smoking if you

are smoker but that’s gonna really help

you as well thanks for watching hi guys

hey listen I created a pretty amazing

evaluation quiz down below that actually

analyzes your symptoms to find the cause

the root cause of all of your symptoms

the most likely cause so take the quiz

now and we’ll send you a report
