Mucosal Barrier & Leaky Gut: Summary
In this Lunch&Learn, the focus is on understanding the mucosal barrier & leaky gut concepts. Detective Ev emphasizes that the information shared is a condensed version of what is covered in detail in the FDN course, making it accessible to those not ready for the full course. The discussion begins with acknowledging Dr. Josh Axe’s contribution through a diagram used to explain intestinal permeability, while stressing the importance of proper credit and encouraging viewers to visit Dr. Axe’s website for more detailed visuals and resources.
The presenter outlines that leaky gut, more scientifically referred to as ‘intestinal permeability,’ is correlated with several autoimmune diseases, highlighting the importance of addressing gut health to potentially alleviate or reverse such conditions. Through an engaging explanation, the audience is made aware that while correlation does not imply causation, addressing gut health through various methods can still offer significant benefits for those with autoimmune issues.
The presentation further covers the impact of modern stressors—like glyphosate and poor diet—on the gut’s protective layers, leading to increased gut permeability and overall systemic inflammation. The lecturer suggests practical approaches to mitigate these issues, such as the use of supplements like bovine serum immunoglobulins, probiotics, and L-glutamine, while urging viewers to consult healthcare professionals before starting any new health regimen. The overarching message is that by being proactive and informed, individuals can significantly improve their gut health and overall well-being.

NorthStar Grounding – Grounding Sheets
They created these grounding sheets and grounding pillow cases. You get the benefits while you sleep. Detective Ev said, “I don’t know about you, but admittedly that’s a thing in functional medicine that’s harder for me to do. And full transparency I was probably averaging 10 minutes or less per week grounded prior to getting this. And now a third of my life, eight hours a day, is spent grounding. We can be sleeping grounded. Why would we not do this all the time?”
