Dietary supplements for reducing intestinal permeability
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study tests whether certain dietary supplements can help reduce intestinal permeability (often called 'leaky gut') by lowering zonulin levels in people who have elevated levels. If you qualify, you may receive supplements that could improve your gut health, but the study has strict requirements.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 65 years old.
- You have been tested and found to have high zonulin levels (above 80 ng/ml) in your stool.
- You have not taken any antibiotics, prebiotics, probiotics, or laxatives in the past month.
- You are not currently taking any prescription or over-the-counter medicines for a health condition.
- You are not pregnant.

This study tests whether a daily supplement can help improve gut health and reduce digestive symptoms like bloating, cramping, or irregular bowel habits. You'll undergo simple urine tests to measure how well your intestines are working.
This trial tests whether a supplement called glutamine can help people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) who have increased gut permeability (leaky gut). It aims to see if taking glutamine improves digestive symptoms and quality of life.
This study looks at how lactose intolerance is linked to gut health. It is for adults with ongoing digestive issues like bloating, pain, or diarrhea, to see if their gut lining may be more sensitive.
This study tests whether a daily probiotic supplement (a beneficial bacteria) can improve the protective lining of the gut and reduce leakage in people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). It involves taking the supplement for a period of time and undergoing some measurements of gut health.
This trial tests whether high doses of vitamin C and zinc can help heal a type of bowel leak (enterocutaneous fistula) in people who need nutrition through a vein. It might help reduce the output from the fistula and speed up recovery.
