The gut lining acts as a barrier to prevent entry of larger damaging molecules, foreign particles and bacteria. When the intestinal lining is damaged, it can allow larger particles, such as undigested or partially digested foods and bacteria, to enter the bloodstream. This leads to malabsorption of nutrients as they pass through into the blood stream in a way that is not good for the body. This can lead to excessive absorption of bacteria and other molecules that the intestines usually prevent from entering the blood stream.
