​

•   The barrier between your gut and bloodstream is just a single layer of specialized epithelial cells, making it thin and vulnerable to inflammation and disruption.

​

•   Maintaining a balanced omega-6 to omega-3 ratio helps strengthen the intestinal barrier by reducing inflammation and protecting cell integrity.

​

•   A healthy balance increases the growth of beneficial gut bacteria which support barrier function and immune health.

​

•   An optimal omega-6 to omega-3 ratio can decrease the presence of harmful, pro-inflammatory bacteria, reducing the risk of chronic digestive issues and enhancing barrier protection.

​

•   Omega-3 fatty acids, when present in the right balance with omega-6, help tighten cell junctions and reduce gut permeability, preventing unwanted substances from leaking into the bloodstream.

​

•   Improved gut barrier function is linked to better overall health, reduced inflammation, and stronger defense against toxins and pathogens passing through the digestive tract.
