Leaky Gut Treatment: Functional Medicine Approach for Healing

Leaky gut syndrome is one of the most overlooked contributors to chronic health issues. Whether you’re experiencing bloating, fatigue, inflammation, food sensitivities, skin problems, or autoimmune symptoms, your gut plays a bigger role than you may realize. When the gut lining becomes damaged, toxins and undigested food particles can enter the bloodstream, triggering widespread inflammation and chronic symptoms.

At HealthfullyU, Dr. Brad Montagne specializes in functional medicine treatment for leaky gut, helping patients restore their digestive health and overall well-being. If you feel like something is “off” with your gut but haven’t found solutions through conventional care, functional medicine offers deeper answers and lasting results. With online consultations available anywhere in the USA, professional guidance is just one click away.

What Is Leaky Gut? Understanding the Root of Your Symptoms

Your small intestine is lined with tiny, protective junctions that control what gets absorbed into your bloodstream. In a healthy gut, these junctions allow only beneficial nutrients to pass through.

But when the gut lining becomes damaged or inflamed, the junctions loosen, a condition known as increased intestinal permeability, commonly called leaky gut.

This allows harmful substances to pass through:

Bacteria
Toxins
Undigested food
Inflammatory particles

These trigger immune reactions, which can lead to symptoms throughout the body. Know more symptoms.

Common Symptoms of Leaky Gut

Leaky gut doesn’t just affect digestion,it impacts the entire system.

You may experience:

Digestive Symptoms

Bloating
Gas
Constipation or diarrhea
Acid reflux
Abdominal pain

Systemic Symptoms

Fatigue
Brain fog
Headaches
Joint pain
Skin issues (eczema, acne, rashes)
Hormonal imbalance

Immune Symptoms

Leaky gut can also worsen or trigger chronic conditions like Lyme disease, mold toxicity, thyroid disorders, and chronic fatigue.

Functional Medicine: The Most Effective Approach to Leaky Gut Treatment

Unlike conventional medicine, which often focuses only on symptoms, functional medicine looks deeper to identify what’s driving your gut damage.

Dr. Brad Montagne’s approach focuses on:

✔️ Root-cause diagnosis
✔️ Inflammation reduction
✔️ Gut lining repair
✔️ Microbiome balance
✔️ Nutrient absorption improvement
✔️ Immune system support

This creates a foundation for long-term, whole-body healing.

HealthfullyU’s Comprehensive Leaky Gut Treatment Process

Our gut healing program is personalized for each patient based on labs, medical history, lifestyle factors, and symptom patterns. Here’s how we approach repairing your gut from the inside out:

1. Root-Cause Testing & Functional Evaluation

A successful gut-healing plan starts with understanding what caused the leaky gut.

Common triggers include:

Chronic inflammation
Bacterial imbalance (dysbiosis)
Parasites
Candida overgrowth
Food sensitivities
Stress
Undiagnosed infections
Processed foods
Toxins

Functional testing may include:

Stool analysis
Gut microbiome mapping
Food sensitivity testing
Inflammatory marker analysis
Nutrient absorption tests

These tests help reveal your personal gut imbalances so treatment is targeted, not guesswork.

2. Remove Irritants and Inflammatory Triggers

This step focuses on eliminating what’s damaging the gut, such as:

Gluten
Dairy
Processed foods
Sugar
Excess alcohol
Food chemicals
Inflammatory oils
Hidden infections

We also address bacterial overgrowth, parasites, or yeast if tests show imbalance.

3. Repair and Rebuild the Gut Lining

This stage focuses on strengthening your intestinal barrier.

Your personalized plan may include:

L-glutamine
Zinc
Collagen
Omega-3 fatty acids
Anti-inflammatory herbs
Mucosal healing nutrients

These support the repair of the intestinal lining and restore tight junctions.

4. Restore the Microbiome

A healthy gut microbiome is crucial for:

Digestion
Immunity
Mood regulation
Nutrient absorption
Inflammation control

We use:

Probiotics
Prebiotics
Fermented foods
Anti-inflammatory nutrition

This restores balance and diversity to your gut bacteria.

5. Replace Missing Digestive Support

Many patients struggle with:

Low stomach acid
Enzyme deficiency
Bile flow problems

We may recommend:

Digestive enzymes
Betaine HCl
Bile support nutrients

Improving digestion helps reduce symptoms and supports gut repair.

6. Reinforce Long-Term Gut Health Through Lifestyle

Gut healing also depends on:

Stress reduction
Better sleep
Hydration
Gentle movement
Mind-body balance

Lifestyle support is a major part of long-term success.
