Iron and Leaky Gut

At Lewrockwell.com, Wayne Lusvardi discusses iron and leaky gut. He writes:

PURE OPINION, NOT MEDICAL ADVICE

Why does the FDA and food producers over advertise low or no fat, no meat or dairy, foods?

Humans need to supplement cholesterol from fat made in their liver about 40% more from diet to make enough to support the Innate Immune System. Meat is the only way to get enough essential Vitamin B-12, iodine, iron and zinc without duplicative supplementation. It isn’t necessarily toxins that cause havoc in our bodies but leaky gut which leaks good bacteria, undigested food, and toxins into the lung, liver and other organs spurring cancer, heart disease, kidney stones, etc. Toxins are not inherently toxic unless relocated to some place in the body not designed for them, by say, leaky gut allowing bacteria into the bloodstream, causing insidious low grade metabolic sepsis.

It is also the failure of our bodies to eliminate these substances from our bodies fast enough each day that causes disease due to insufficient hydration, fiber, and natural circulation boosters to maintain health. Re-interpreting toxicologist Paracelsus, it isn’t the dosage or the substance that makes the poison, but the lack of flow, elimination, and compromising of the gut and cell walls in the body that make good bacteria and food into toxins

Leaky gut is mainly the side effect of antibiotics and the lethal dosage of prescription drugs. Collagen deficiency from not eating gelatinous foods such as pigs feet, beef tendons, bone broth, chicken skin, gelatin, etc. is part of the leaky gut problem.

With age the rate of metabolism declines. Historically, caffeine, nicotine and alcohol have been natural metabolism and elimination boosters that are over-taxed and criminalized to drive the public to replacing them with drugs more lucrative to the pharmaceutical industry and government. Research monies, however, give priority to explaining how an almost-invisible, non-existent virus is the cause of disease and epidemics. Research fails to focus on overgrowth of infinitesimally small cell-wall deficient organisms like Candida yeast (0.15 milllionths of a meter) caused by excessive prescription of antibiotics. Nevertheless, a recent research paper blames iron overload as the culprit and even the conservative media is swallowing the propaganda.
