Linaclotide, the first effective treatment for Leaky Gut?

[Waverunner]

Hi,

as I posted here http://phoenixrising.me/forums/show...cure-treatment-for-Leaky-Gut-(PLoS-ONE-study)

Linaclotide seems to work on the right mechanism behind leaky gut and could actually cure it.

I would be very interested in comments on it.

Linaclotide looks interesting. There's another drug in clinical trials for Celiac disease called Larazotide that is more likely to be beneficial in treating leaky gut..

I don't know if zonulin-inhibitors like larazotide are better for leaky gut because they treat a Celiac disease specific problem that has implications for other diseases but we will see.
