Leaky Gut Syndrome and De Simone Formula® (DSF®)
Leaky gut syndrome and intestinal barrier dysfunction are associated with intestinal diseases, such as Inflammatory Bowel Disease and Irritable Bowel Syndrome, as well as extra-intestinal diseases, including heart diseases, obesity, type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus, and neurological diseases.
Given the relationship between intestinal permeability and numerous metabolic diseases, it is an excellent strategy to avoid or minimize intestinal permeability.
Our proprietary De Simone Formulation (DSF) – a unique blend of 8 carefully selected and extensively tested probiotics, together with good diet and lifestyle, is an intelligent approach to restore gut microbiome, maintain gut lining integrity and avoid leaky gut, thus minimizing various metabolic syndrome conditions.
