What is Leaky Gut Test?
Your guts have 2 functions; to digest and absorb nutrients and keep toxins out. When your gut is leaky, it can result in inflammation, which is a great threat to the immune system as bacteria and toxins enter the bloodstream. When this happen, Indican will be produced as it acts on the amino acid, tryptophan.
Leaky Gut Test is a quick urine test run in order to determine the level of Indican in your urine. Usually, there is only a small amount of Indican found in the urine. It may be higher as the inability to digest protein may have adverse effects.

FAQ
Q1: Is it true that leaky gut can make you smell bad?
A1: It is not 100% certain but some associate leaky gut with body odors. The possibility of it being true is that since the toxins in the body can penetrate through the skin pores, hence the odors. But sometimes, if you consume a large amount of garlic, onions or other detoxifying food, this may cause the odor too.
Q2: What is the best way to heal Leaky Gut?
A2: Avoid alcohol, sugar and junk food. Foods with additives and preservatives should be consumed less regularly.
