What is the intestinal lining?
The intestinal system is made up primarily of the small and large intestines.
The intestinal system is where nutrients are absorbed to feed the organs,
tissues and virtually every cell of the body. A properly functioning intestinal
system is vital to overall health and well-being. The intestinal wall secretes
mucus which forms a “membrane” or “lining” that coats the surface of the
intestinal tract. This lining is essential to proper digestion, immune functions
and overall health.
Why is the intestinal lining so important?
This lining serves many functions. Three of the most critical are:
- Lubricating intestinal contents.
- Helping with nutrient absorption by allowing properly digested foods to
pass into the bloodstream.
- Serving as a protective barrier to prevent the absorption of unwanted
toxins, parasites and undigested foods.
Where does this lining come from?
Every 3-5 days the intestinal system sheds and renews the cells that line the
intestinal tract. The amino acid, L-Glutamine, is the primary fuel for this
process.
L-Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the human body. When functioning
properly, the body converts L-Glutamine into N-Acetyl Glucosamine, an amino
sugar that is found in all tissues of the body. Much of the intestinal lining is
composed of N-Acetyl Glucosamine, which serves to hold the cells of the
intestinal lining together.
What can we do to achieve optimal intestinal lining
health?
Much of the literature today suggests that supplementation with L-Glutamine and
N-Acetyl-Glucosamine may be beneficial in the maintenance of proper intestinal
permeability. It is suggested that as we age, we need more of these amino
compounds to properly maintain this mucosal lining. Gamma-Oryzanol is a natural
extract of rice bran oil. It is believed that Gamma Oryzanol helps maintain
gastrointestinal health because of the strong antioxidant properties it
exhibits.
A healthy intestinal lining helps determine the overall
health of an individual. A healthy digestive lining plays a critical role in
the absorption of beneficial nutrients and the blockage of unwanted compounds
into the bloodstream.”
