The Total Gut Repair Kit

The Total Gut Repair Kit includes seven supplements that are crucial for anyone who is struggling with gut issues like Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), GERD, Bowel Irregularity, Leaky Gut, and digestive complaints like bloating, burping, gas and indigestion. 

I will introduce you below to the seven supplements in my Health Restore Total Gut Health Repair Kit that together, result in a powerful, effective yet gentle gut healing combination:

One of my favorite products that I chose for the Total Gut Health Repair Kit is my Collagen Peptide Powder (Grass-Fed).  Collagen protein is a special type of protein that contains key amino acids needed for optimal body function by supporting tissue and muscle regeneration and repair including intestinal wall muscle and intestinal barrier integrity. Aside from supporting the health of intestinal wall cells, Collagen Peptide Powder supports healthy skin, joint, cartilage, and muscle strength and health optimal bone density. The source of my Collagen Peptide Powder is from grass-fed, pasture-raised beef, and it is 100% non-GMO and kosher.

The next product I chose to include in the kit is Leaky Gut Restore.  Leaky Gut Revive is a potent and gentle combination formula of amino acid and botanicals that supports gastrointestinal health, promotes healthy gut microflora and supports cell and tissue repair. This formula not only helps beneficial gut microflora flourish but works to heal leaky gut by supporting the healing and repair of damaged intestinal walls promoting your body’s intestinal tissue repair mechanisms to repair cellular damage caused by imbalanced gut bacteria and toxins triggered inflammation, to restore a healthy intestinal cell wall barrier and improve overall gut function.

Adding Gut Repair to the kit assures that gastric lining is supported. Gut Repair is a potent well researched formula of minerals and peptides that helps heal and support gastric lining and beneficial gut bacteria and helps heal gastric lining inflammation that may interfere with optimal absorption of nutrients like vitamin B12 and minerals like zinc, magnesium and iron.  To help assure that imbalanced intestinal bacteria, parasites and yeast are kept in check Berbemycin Lean is a powerful and gentle botanical       formula that promotes microbial balance, with a long history of use and effectiveness in digestive health.  As a bonus Berbemycin Lean helps promotes healthy lean body weight by optimizing insulin sensitivity and blood sugar balance.  I also made sure to include BioFilm Max Defense to create an inhospitable environment for overgrowth of imbalanced pathogens in the gut. The gentle and effective formula contains specific plant enzymes that help maintain a balanced flora in the GI tract while helping to digest away tough biofilms created by yeast and bacteria that make them difficult to kill or eradicate. My Digestizyme Supreme is my optimal complete digestive enzyme formula of potent enzymes that help support and improve digestion of proteins, carbohydrates and fats, and gluten and dairy and to minimize negative effects of undigested food, and improve absorption of nutrients like vitamins and minerals.   Lastly Finally, my Therbiotics Supreme Daily DF that is a vegetarian, dairy and gluten free four strain probiotic totaling 100 billion CFU per capsule.  round out the four: A potent, fourteen-strain probiotic totaling 100 billion CFU’s per capsule for optimal support of healthy gut beneficial bacteria, healthy immune response, bowel regularity and improved digestion.

A healthy gut is is central to maintaining overall health and imbalanced gut flora and issues such as leaky gut or small intestinal bacterial overgrowth are correlated with chronic disease, autoimmunity and poorer health overall. The seven formulas I selected to include in Health Restore Total Gut Repair kit include key ingredients that together help address core imbalances in Gut Health such as dysbiosis or imbalanced gut flora, overgrowth of yeast like candida, parasites, or bad bacteria, poor digestion, intestinal permeability and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth.

Collagen is the most abundant protein in your body.  It is the major part of connective tissues that make up your tendons, ligaments, skin, joints and muscles.  Collagen has many important functions, such as skin structure, bone strength, repair of cartilage tissue in joints, and importantly Collagen is one of the key nutrients for gut health.  It is essential component for healing intestinal wall cells supporting gut health and intestinal wall integrity. Collagen can help heal leaky gut and help prevent intestinal cell wall ‘leakiness’.

Leaky gut results when intestinal wall cells become compromised as to their normal and healthy structure. In a healthy gut, cells are tight next to each other forming a healthy intestinal cell wall barrier that avoids ‘leaking’ of toxins into the blood stream. If the cells in the intestinal wall are injured due to imbalanced gut bacteria and microbes, toxins, and medications, the tight junctions between the cells are damaged, become leaky and leaky gut is the result. When the gut becomes leaky, toxins, undigested food particles can enter your bloodstream resulting in inflammation, autoimmunity, food sensitivities and travel to distant organs causing autoimmune organ damage. L-Glutamine is not only the most abundant free form amino acid in the body, it is crucial for maintaining healthy gastrointestinal function, cell wall health and integrity, and healthy immune cell function. L-Glutamine is the predominant fuel of the mucosal cell wall lining in the GI tract. Especially in times of stress like illness, needs for L-Glutamine increase and supplementation is even more vital.

Arabinogalactan is a naturally occurring molecule from the North American Larch Tree. It provides excellent support for gut health and the immune system. Research shows that Arabinogalactan promotes growth of beneficial gut microflora and can play an important role in promoting gut health by increasing beneficial short-chain fatty acid production, produced by friendly gut bacteria, that are the main source of energy for healthy colon cells.

Licorice Root Extract helps soothe, heal and cleanse the gut with its anti-inflammatory, anti-spasmotic, laxative and soothing effects. It also can heal any mucosal damage from drugs like aspirin or Ibuprofen. It is a concentrated extract formulated to provide all the benefits without side effects.  Aloe Leaf Extract, helps heal damaged tissue including those in the gut lining compromised in leaky gut. It has been used for thousands of years for its healing properties. It can also hep promote bowel regularity and improve digestion and help normalize bacteria in stool where yeast overgrowth exists.

Zinc-Carnosine is a powerful complex of elemental zinc and L-carnosine, a naturally occurring molecule found in muscle and brain tissue. It is extremely well studied and has been shown to have cell protective and healing properties. It helps to heal gastritis and ulcers and has antioxidant and cell protective properties beneficial to the health of the gastrointestinal tract.

Berbermycin Lean contains a naturally occurring plant alkaloid used in traditional ayurvedic and Chinese herbal practices with demonstrated benefits for gastrointestinal and immune health as well as blood sugar and lipid metabolism. Berberine is a powerful botanical for gut health, immune support, as well as healthy metabolism. Berberine HCL in Berbemycin Lean supports beneficial bacterial balance in the gut, helps maintain a healthy microbiome, helps get through bacterial or fungal tough biofilm, helps normalize bowel movements, and can modulate the immune system.  I formulated Berbermycin Lean to contain 1,000 mg of berberine hydrochloride (HCl) derived from Berberis aristata, commonly known as Indian barberry. This multidimensional formula is designed to promote gastrointestinal health and balance as well as support metabolism.

I made sure to address the tough Biofilms that bacteria and yeast can hide under making them very difficult to kill with BioFilm MaxDefense.  Biofilm MaxDefense contains a unique plant enzyme combination that helps dissolve biofilms.  Biofilm is a slimy substance that imbalanced bacteria and yeast can hide within to hide from the immune system, and make them highly resistant to antimicrobials, allowing them to thrive. 

Trying to address overgrowth of bacteria or yeast or infections for that matter without addressing Biofilms is frequently just not successful.

Even when Patients who suffer from Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBD) or Small Intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO)  and are prescribed antibiotics, antibiotics appear to work at first, but soon after the disease rebounds and flares up possibly due to the tough biofilms.  Biofilms are also linked to both Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis.  Biofilm MaxDefense is a biofilm disruptor that can make bacteria and yeast vulnerable to treatment and restoring gut health possible.

I included Digestizyme Supreme, my complete digestive enzyme formula, to not only help complete digestion and protein breakdown, and vitamin and mineral absorption but to also help bypass negative effects of incomplete digestion that include inflammation and autoimmunity.  It is formulated to include broad spectrum enzymes including proteolytic enzymes, to support optimal digestion of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats as well as optimize vitamin and mineral absorption while also helping to breakdown gluteomorphin (from gluten) and casomorphin (from dairy/casein).  Especially when it comes to more difficult and troublesome food components such as Lectins, that can especially problematic and difficult to digest, this broad spectrum blend of proteolytic enzymes provides the needed support for breaking down any undigested inflammatory food particles that can go on to cause serious autoimmune reactions that can be preceded by symptoms like food sensitivities, rashes, eczema, congestion, asthma like symptoms and digestive complaints like bloating and abdominal pain. These enzymes are especially important for anyone dealing with gut or autoimmune issues and is crucial for anyone dealing with SIBO, small intestinal bacteria overgrowth.

Probiotics support optimal digestive health and yeast balance in the gut. While it’s true that probiotics live in your sinuses, your nostrils, on your skin, and even in your mouth, most of the probiotics in your body reside in your digestive tract, specifically your large intestine and colon. When stress, illness, antibiotic use, or a poor diet compromise the probiotic bacteria population in these areas of the body, digestive symptoms are imminent. Leaky gut, gas, bloating, yeast overgrowth and a disruption of normal bowel habits are often the first signs that something has gone awry. Supplementation with a top quality probiotic can help repopulate these areas with beneficial bacteria, often helping to restore normal digestion, optimal microflora balance, and gut barrier function.
