Brief Answer:
Need to ask some questions.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thankyou for asking here.
As you said that you have got food and chemical sensitivities and leaky gut, I would like to know first what symptoms you get after eating sensitive food - Do you get itching problem, loose motions, swelling of lips or red bumps on the skin.
And do you mean loose motions or diarrhea as leaky gut?
I would also like to know that do you have complain of loose motions with stomachache alternating with constipation on and off.
Since when you are having these problems? Do you eat out mostly? What type of food and chemicals causes sensitivity?
Getting answers of these above queries could help me more to understand your problem ,and conclude the probable cause of your symptoms.
Hopefully I shall hear from you again and will be happy to help you further.
