I never took Restore, so I'm not advertising this product.
I do think these guys may have found something that may be helpful for many of us, who suffer from leaky gut and leaky brains...

- Brussels,
such an important consideration in our food / beverage choices & avoidance is best, but not all can do that (say, kids who eat school lunches, people on the go at lunchtime, etc).
In addition to your article,
Some of the links here speak to that in the GMO-articles / film. The film is excellent and really shows how glycos. can damage the gut lining:
Excitotoxins; MSG; Aspartame; & "Natural" Flavors (that are not likely natural at all).
GMO foods that destroy the GI Tract; Gluten; Dairy. -

- IMO, nothing is more important than avoiding glyphosate / GMOs . . .and gluten (for some people - for different reasons).
Yet, along with that most with lyme also must consider infection connections. Some herbs can help cover various bases. For instance, olive leaf extract article I just came upon:
Immunomodulatory properties of Olea europaea leaf extract in intestinal inflammation. Eleven authors' detail at link [all medical researchers in Spain; Italy]
Excerpt:
. . . CONCLUSION:
Olive leaf extract presented intestinal anti-inflammatory activity in colitis mouse models, maybe be related to its immunomodulatory properties and the capacity to restore the intestinal epithelial barrier.
Besides, the extract could also regulate the activity of cells involved in the inflammatory response.
30 days to heal the gut. Seems to good to be true but I may try it. I use their kefir starter and have been happy with that.
I have Restore and didn't notice a difference. Maybe I didnt try it long enough. I should dust it off and try it again.

I've tried Restore a couple times. The first time I remember I stopped because it made me feel bad. My gut was in bad shape with SIBO.
The second time I felt fine with it, but I'm not sure I noticed a difference.

- My eyes can't find the ingredients in Restore. Just be sure to avoid any Glutamine / Glutamate / glutamic acid. That can destroy nerve fibers for those with neurological illnesses.
This is an ingredient in many supplements aimed to help leaky gut, though, not a good thing for most here.
Check all supplements and assess diet (and anything that comes into our bodies for:
See post: Caution: Aspartate; Glutamine; and Phenylalanine (3 excitatory amino acids that can be wrong for us when added as supplements, beyond a normal dietary level) -

Digestive health summit experts say leaky gut can be fixed since cells turn over fairly rapidly. They like people to start with drinking bone broth for a little while, they say it has the needed minerals.

Keebler, thank you a lot for the useful links!
The 'ingredients' of Restore are not easy to find... I think they use some sort of PURIFIED CARBON from prehistoric ORGANIC carbon.
That is what I understood by reading interviews with the maker of Restore.
It's more like a 'message' remedy, more than a nutrient supplement. In the ways homeopathy and energy medicine work, maybe (?).
It works through changing the way probiotic bacteria communicate among themselves, if I understood it well.
It's not a probiotic.
Anyone else tried Restore?

I think this is so true!
gluten does mess with the tight cell junctions of the gut and plus, most products with gluten, if not organic, are LOADED with glyphosate!!

I just had my father in law for a visit. He's still not 80, but getting close to it.
He was such a strong man in his youth: heavy bones, very strong physically, rarely fell ill his whole life...
His arms and legs were bleeding with infections this time. I tested him energetically, and guess what came? Milk products: he only eats cheese, that's all.
He's been eating cheese almost since birth, he said. Why now would he develop such problems? Of course, he did not believe me.
So I MADE him be on a no-cheese diet (because he was in my house for more than a week), he barely saw the difference.
Then he drove back home, and 3 days later, he calls me to tell his skin closed almost completely!!
So it took him more than a week on a no-cheese diet to see improvements!
Well, the story goes: it is probably not the milk causing him problems, but all the toxins (glyphosate + pesticides etc) inside it!!! That is my hypothesis, of course.
But now, his problem got so bad that not even the organic cheese test good!
So, if you guys want to avoid glyphosate and GMOs, there must be avoidance of all milk, animal foods that are not organic!!
How can a person eat cheese his whole life for 75 years and have no problem at all, and develop a bad allergy type of reaction after more than 7 decades of DAILY consumption of milk products??
My hypothesis is that: we messed up with the whole food chain adding glypho to pesticides and fungicides, and now got THE perfect bad milk that affects even the healthiest people, with extreme robust gastrointestinal tracts!

My dad is the same age and had those skin problems. We can't change his diet, he won't, but we gave him a food sourced (not ascorbic acid) vitamin C and it's GOING AWAY!!!
His doctors have no idea why it's disappering. Doctors can't even recognize scurvy when they see it.
He was taking ascorbic acid for years, but food sourced C changed everything.
