There's a lot of fuss about leaky gut, but for most people, it’s a bit of a mystery. Leaky gut occurs when cracks or holes develop in the lining of the intestinal tract, allowing dangerous particles, like bacteria and endotoxins (undigested poop), to pass through its leaky junctions.<span className='citation'>7</span>
Now, the signs of leaky gut can be different for different people… but if you’ve ever struggled with low energy, digestive discomfort, brain fog, food cravings, weight gain, or even skin issues, leaky gut could be the reason why.<span className='citation'>8</span>
And when it comes to leaky gut, there's one family of proteins that's extremely good at causing it.
One of the main culprits in leaky gut is lectins. Lectins are “sticky” proteins found in legumes, whole grains, beans, and vegetables. These proteins protect plants in nature, but since they are hard for the human body to digest, they can cause digestive issues when they are consumed in large quantities. Especially if they’re not prepared properly. Lectins have the ability to bind to the cells in the gut, pull apart the intestinal lining and tear holes in it. They’re the reason toxins are able to leave the digestive system, enter the bloodstream and potentially harm other parts of the body.
If that wasn’t enough, lectins are also classNameified as an anti-nutrient. That’s because they have the ability to disrupt the absorption of calcium, iron, phosphorus, and zinc.9 Sadly, research shows about one third of all products sold in the local supermarket contain some type of lectin.10This makes lectins practically an unavoidable part of our lives.
So when it comes to getting over leaky gut, simply sealing the holes won't be enough. You also need to make sure these unavoidable lectins won't be able to create new holes afterwards.
There are two actions to take in order to overcome leaky gut:
A. Repair the gut lining so that toxins can’t get inside the bloodstream.11B. Prevent lectins from ever binding to the gut lining in the first place, so that new holes can never be formed.12The mistake many make fighting leaky gut is focusing on the digestive issues instead of the source- the gut lining itself.
So even though addressing issues like poor digestion and slow metabolism are vitally important to our health, treating them directly is essentially useless as long as the gut is “leaking.”
Plus the treatments that do address the gut lining will usually only act as a temporary solution, because these solutions don't focus on preventing lectins from forming new holes like Total Restore. Some of them even contain lectins as an active ingredient!

I kept asking myself, “If I’m doing everything right, why is this happening to me?” Then, I made an unusual discovery about what was really holding back my health for my entire adult life. Once I learned the truth about lectins and leaky gut, I lost 70lbs.
Now I’ve made it my mission to make this powerful solution available to everyone in a simple and affordable way.”
