Sue,Sorry to have to put this through the list  but  my email was
bounced because of administration rejection and I think this is one of
the best articles to describe leaky gut syndrome. I do hope the
listowners put this through as many of the newbies might not have seen
this and because living in Africa, maybe you have not gotten access to
all the info you can.
