Supplements for Leaky gut / intestinal permeability.

When leaky gut / intestinal permeability is the complaint, these are the supplements most often associated with it in the NutriStack library, ranked by how directly each one targets it and by the strength of the evidence.

Supplements

Ranked by relevance, top first.

Relevance reflects how directly each supplement targets this symptom in the NutriStack map. Evidence is the supplement’s own rating. Open any name for the full profile.

  1. 01
    85% match

    L-glutamine fuels enterocytes and may support tight junction integrity, which could help maintain normal intestinal permeability.

    SuggestedL-glutamine powder
  2. 02
    80% match

    Zinc carnosine may stabilize the gastric and intestinal mucosa and support barrier repair, with some human data suggesting reduced permeability.

    SuggestedZinc-L-carnosine tablets
  3. 03
    ProbioticsModerate
    75% match

    Some probiotic strains may strengthen the mucosal barrier and modulate tight junction proteins, potentially reducing permeability.

    SuggestedMulti-strain probiotic (at least 10 billion CFU)
  4. 04
    ColostrumLimited
    70% match

    Bovine colostrum provides growth factors and immunoglobulins that may support mucosal integrity and reduce exercise-induced permeability in small studies.

    SuggestedBovine colostrum powder
  5. 05
    65% match

    Saccharomyces boulardii may support the gut barrier and reduce inflammatory signaling, indirectly aiding permeability in some contexts.

    SuggestedSaccharomyces boulardii CNCM I-745 capsules
  6. 06
    QuercetinLimited
    60% match

    Quercetin is a flavonoid that may stabilize mast cells and support tight junction assembly in preclinical models, with limited human permeability data.

    SuggestedQuercetin phytosome (or co-formulated with bromelain) for absorption
  7. 07
    55% match

    Collagen peptides supply glycine and proline that may support the intestinal extracellular matrix, though direct permeability evidence is sparse.

    SuggestedHydrolyzed collagen peptides powder
