Leaky Gut Repair: Mega IgG 2000 vs. MegaMucosa

The pursuit of gut health is a life-long journey, one that can be exhausting, frustrating and confusing. It supports the ultimate destination to overall health and a strong immune system. 

If you’re just beginning this journey, stuck somewhere in the middle or looking to up your healthy gut game, this simple plan will point you in the right direction!

When it comes to gut health, don’t despair; just become aware, thoroughly compare and begin to repair. 

There are so many supplements that target leaky gut. While it’s great that it is finally getting the attention it deserves, choosing a quality supplement that is right for you can be overwhelming.

Within the sporebiotic family, two cousin products, Mega IgG and MegaMucosa, work to restore gut integrity and support a healthy immune system. Let’s take a closer look at what they do and how to properly use them to treat gastrointestinal and mucosal barrier dysfunction (1, 2).

These small but mighty warriors fight to combat symptoms associated with gut irritation and intestinal permeability. 

Common Symptoms of Leaky Gut

  • Gas and bloating

  • Food sensitivities

  • Autoimmune conditions

  • Thyroid problems

  • Joint pain

  • Chronic fatigue

  • Chronic skin problems

  • Indigestion

  • Anxiety and depression (3)

Unfortunately, most people in today’s society can identify with at least 1-2 of these symptoms because of exposure to toxic elements and experiences. 

Detriments to the Gut

  • Highly processed foods

  • Pesticides and insecticides

  • Sugar

  • Refined carbohydrates

  • Gluten

  • Parasitic infections

  • Fungal infections

  • Imbalances in the microbiome (aka dysbiosis)

  • Heavy metal toxicity

  • Chemical toxicity

  • GMOs

  • Hormonal imbalances

  • Stress and trauma

If you’re reading this, you probably have already experienced the pain and misery of leaky gut symptoms, as well as the inconvenience and difficulty of decreasing toxic exposure, but…

Knowledge is power and power enables action.

Once you identify and learn the root causes of your gut issues, you are better equipped to repair your digestive system and rebuild a healthy mucosal barrier. 

The raw material in Mega IgG 2000 has 57 studies (43 of which are human clinical trials) and binds to microbial/fungal/viral antigens, including lipopolysaccharides (LPS), H-Pylori, C-Diff toxin A and B, E.Coli, Salmonella, Staphylococcus.

Mega IgG and MegaMucosa are two immunoglobulin-containing (4) supplements that are crucial to this restoration process. Keep “tract” of how they each bring something unique to the gut healing process.

The Grit to Help the Gut: Mega IgG 2000

Created by Microbiome Labs, this unique product is highly concentrated, containing not only immunoglobulin IgG but also IgM and IgA. This gives you the three most important immunoglobulins to fight off any potential infections or isolate toxins trying to get into your blood-stream.

Mega IgG supports the gut by:

  • Seeking out pathogens and binding to toxins, thus eliminating them from the body

  • Identifying potentially dangerous viruses, bacteria, fungus, and proteins

  • Cleaning up infections and waste within the gut

  • Reducing the effects of bacterial die off in the gut

  • Easing digestive distress

Don’t get yourself in a bind...

They are a great choice for loose stool, but they can be potentially constipating. To help minimize constipation, take this supplement in the morning and start with a smaller dose.

Rebuild the Barrier: MegaMucosa

Also created by Microbiome Labs, Mega Mucosa is the only product that both supports the immune system with immunoglobulins and repairs the gut.

It combines the benefits of amino acids like L-cysteine, L-proline, L-threonine, and L-serine with powerful ingredients like bovine immunoglobulins and citrus bioflavonoids. 

Its ingredients work together in perfect harmony…

MegaMucosa supports the gut by:

  • Blocking absorption of harmful toxins

  • Rebuilding the gut barrier 

  • Strengthening the mucosal lining 

  • Supporting healthy microbial diversity

  • Working to decrease constipation, food sensitivities, stress and a 'raw' feeling in the intestines (everything hurts to eat)

Fun Fact: 

Mucus is the main interface between the human body and the outside world. The mucosal system contains 150 times more surface area than the skin, which makes it one of the most important immune barriers.

Did you know?

The health of the mucosa determines how the body interacts with antigens; therefore, the integrity of the intestinal mucosa can dictate overall immune function.

While this powdered drink doesn’t taste pleasant, it is good for children and people who have difficulty swallowing.

The extra nutrients certainly outweigh the taste!

As mentioned earlier, the gut health journey is unique to each person and an integral part of the ongoing pursuit to better overall health.

Remember, it’s not about the glam...it’s about the GUT.

Your gut is: 

  • The main hub for the microbiome (most bacteria are here)

  • Most likely where inflammation first surfaces

  • Directly linked to your immune system (5)

The benefits of Mega IgG and MegaMucosa are sweeter and better for you than candy! These supplements are a wonderful addition to the sporebiotic lineage.
