    Everything You Should Know About Leaky Guts

    If you are constantly feeling bloated, constipated, and exhausted, chances are you might be experiencing leaky gut symptoms. In this article, we provide information about what causes leaky gut, why it is important to fix it, and ways to start healing your gut.

    What Is a Leaky Gut?

    A leaky gut typically occurs when diet or environmental factors overload the digestive system causing increased intestinal permeability and damage. These factors cause the stomach and other intestines to not function as they normally would, which limits the ability to process food. When your stomach cannot function normally, undigested foods, bacteria, and other parasites might “leak” out of damaged intestines and affect the healthy tissue beneath it, resulting in an overstimulated immune system. Consequently, a leaky gut forms as a reaction to the overstimulation.

    The FDA Attempts to Limit Access to Compounded BHRT

    The FDA’s Recent Memorandum of Understanding

    In May 2020, the FDA released its Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) about proposed regulations on distributing cBHRT drugs out of state. According to the MOU, the FDA will limit pharmacies to distributing only 5% of their compounded drugs out of state if they do not sign the document. 

    The FDA will allow pharmacies who do sign the MOU to distribute up to 50% of compounded drugs. Any failure to adhere to these regulations results in a state investigation and mandatory reporting to the FDA. Not only will these regulations impact cBHRT, but they will impact all compounded medication. 

    To advocate for patients, pharmacy groups, such as the Alliance for Pharmacy Compounding (APC) , voiced concerns about revising the MOU so that states and the government can reach an agreement. Until then, numerous states refused to sign the MOU.
