                                                                               The BOWEL = The CENTER of HEALTH

   The bowel may not be the most glamorous organ, but it is the foundation of health.  To understand why, it's important to know that nearly 80 percent of all pathogens enter the body through or attached to mucosal surfaces; e.g.,
 the sinuses, respiratory tract, mouth, gastrointestinal tract, and bile ducts, and that the
largest of the mucosal surfaces is the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. 

The GI tract is also where most infectious organisms enter the body and where the antibodies and many different beneficial bacteria (yes, bacteria can be both good and bad, depending on the type) are  produced and work to attack invading pathogens and stop diseases before they take hold). 

There's a constant battle going on in your GI tract -- enemies coming in and your standing army fighting them
off (that is, when the GI tract is healthy and your army is properly armed).  

When your defenses are weak, which can occur for many reasons, such as antibiotic use, poor nutrition, environmental toxins, and stress, then the invaders can take over, and disease settles in. 

Yes, the bowel is definitely where the action is.

Colostrum contains many compounds of critical importance in human health. 

 Yet they are of little or no value if they are not bioavailable  (able to be used by the body),
and if they do not act where they are most needed -- the bowel. 

Numerous studies conducted over the past twenty-five-plus years show that bovine colostrum contains protease
inhibitors that prevent the digestive tract from destroying the immunoglobulins in colostrum,
thus allowing them to pass virtually unaltered into the bowel and to adhere to the
mucosal surfaces and do their work. 

A recent study, conducted at Harvard Medical School, demonstrates that bovine immunoglobulins resist breakdown in the gastrointestinal tract and retain their ability to help prevent and treat diarrhea and colitis with colostridium difficile.

This is known as C DIFF = and it is a very big problem --- due in most part to the unhealthy conditions in our hospitals
= we know: just recently went thru "hell" because of it (this is a family / personal notation) thought you might
want to know what can also happen in the bowel and how medical facilities are now "filthy".

Much evidence shows the relationship between bowel health and overall health.  One major clue is that many of the antibodies produced by the body are made in the intestinal tract at a site called Peyer's patches. 

The antibodies produced in Peyer's patches prevent disease on the mucosal membranes and in the
circulatory system.  Further evidence lies with the link between infections
of the bowel and those in the lungs. 

   Convincing proof of the link between GI health and overall health is the existence of leaky gut syndrome.

   The compromised BOWEL = Leaky Gut Syndrome:

   Leaky gut syndrome.  Sounds like your stomach is full of holes, like a sieve, and is leaking out its contents." 
Not a bad definition from someone who had no idea what leaky gut syndrome is. 

Leaky gut is very common:  at least as common as all the immune system diseases combined. 
(By the way, "gut" is synonymous with intestine or bowel; it is not the stomach.)

  Leaky gut syndrome, or intestinal permeability, is a condition in which the intestinal lining is more permeable than normal, which means there are unusually large pores or spaces between the cells that make up the intestinal wall.

This additional space allows toxic substances such as bacteria, viruses, parasites, and other
 harmful factors to enter the bloodstream and reach every part of the body.  In a healthy gut,
these toxins are eliminated.

One feature of leaky gut syndrome is that undigested fats and proteins can escape into the intestinal wall,
resulting in allergic responses by the body. 

Food allergies develop from a leaky gut when the large protein molecules (from food with protein/amino acids) pass through the intestinal wall and are absorbed before they are completely metabolized. 

The immune system recognizes these proteins as invaders and creates antibodies against them. 
Whenever you eat that particular food, the body attacks the protein, and a food allergy is born.

Leady gut syndrome and the inflammation of the intestinal lining that accompanies it can be triggered by use of antibiotics, corticosteroids (e.g. prednisone), nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs, e.g. aspirin, ibuprofen), birth control pills, foods contaminated by parasites, molds, or bacteria (e.g., E. coli, Salmonella, Listeria), viruses (e.g., rotavirus, HIV),
excessive intake of refined sugars, enzyme deficiency (e.g./ celiac disease), caffeine, alcohol,
food additives, surgery, and a decrease in blood supply to the bowel.  

In the case of long-term use of antibiotics, for example, the good bacteria in the gut are destroyed, leaving the body's
 number one site for production of antibodies virtually unprotected.  Incoming pathogen meet no resistance,
and the resulting inflammation leads to leaky gut syndrome. 

Symptoms that often accompany leaky gut are intestinal cramps, diarrhea, constipation, fatigue, bloating, and gas.

A very common cause of GI injury is the use of NSAIDs.  In a recent study, colostrum helped prevent
GI injury in patients taking the NSAID indomethacin. 

This suggests that colostrum may also be effective in preventing GI damage caused by other NSAIDs,
including aspirin and ibuprofen (e.g., Motrin, Advil).

Another feature of leaky gut syndrome and bowel inflammation is mal absorption of minerals,
which leads to mineral deficiencies. 

These deficiencies occur because the special carrier proteins, which transport the minerals from your food
and supplements from the intestine to the bloodstream, are damaged by the inflamed gut lining.

A zinc deficiency caused by poor absorption can result in hair loss (alopecia  areata), and magnesium
 deficiency is common among people with fibromyalgia, even when they take supplements
of magnesium, because the gut allows the mineral to leak into the bloodstream. 

Mineral deficiencies can lead to osteoporosis, arthritis, heart disease, fatigue, memory loss, headache,
inability to concentrate, and irritability.

   The far arm of leaky gut syndrome reaches still further.  The Inflammation in the gut damages an immunoglobulin
known as IgA, which works in the healthy gut to protect against infection.  

Without the help of IgA, pathogens can escape into the bloodstream and infect any part of the body. 

An overstressed liver can result in confusion, loss of concentration, and other mental and cognitive problems.
