MED DARM REPAIR with PMA-Zeolite to support irritable bowel and leaky gut
Irritable bowel and a permeable gut (leaky gut) are often connected.

People with irritable bowel are often searching for the right product for years, because many remedies help only for a short time or only against a single symptom – for example against diarrhoea, while additional products are needed for abdominal pain or bloating. Those affected struggle not only with abdominal pain, diarrhoea, bloating, intestinal inflammation or constipation, but often also with secondary effects such as migraine, sleep problems, low mood and exhaustion. Quality of life is significantly impaired.

Experts recommend the so-called three-pillar therapy of dietary change, relaxation and medical support. The third pillar in particular – targeted products for symptom relief – often does not help sustainably. After many unsuccessful attempts, many of those affected become worn down. This is exactly where MED DARM REPAIR comes in.

Gut Therapy and More with MED DARM REPAIR

Science confirms that a permeable gut – leaky gut – is often associated with irritable bowel syndrome. When the gut is permeable, it loses its filter and protective function. This burdens not only the gut itself but also the immune system and other organs.

The gut is considered the centre of general health – around 80% of the immune defence takes place there. This is why supporting the gut is seen as an important basis for many other therapies. Irritable bowel syndrome in particular, with diarrhoea, bloating and abdominal pain as well as food intolerances, often goes hand in hand with a leaky gut.

Possible complaints with a permeable intestinal wall

  • Digestive complaints, especially irritable bowel
  • Chronic inflammatory bowel diseases
  • Food intolerances and allergies
  • Elevated liver values
  • Illness-related exhaustion and low mood
  • Skin problems (acne, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis)

What Is Irritable Bowel Syndrome?

Irritable bowel often develops gradually. Those affected experience various digestive complaints – but without an organic cause. It is a functional disorder of the gastrointestinal tract that can affect not only the large intestine but the entire digestive system. In Austria, around 20% of the population are affected – about one in five people, with the number of unreported cases estimated to be higher. Women are affected twice as often as men. Irritable bowel syndrome is diagnosed when complaints last longer than three months.

Typical complaints
  • Diarrhoea (also alternating with constipation)
  • Bloating
  • Abdominal pain
  • Intestinal inflammation
Possible accompanying effects
  • Anxiety disorders
  • Depression
  • Insomnia
  • Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS)
  • Headaches and migraine

How Can MED DARM REPAIR Support?

Since irritable bowel often goes hand in hand with a leaky gut and an altered gut environment, it is important to improve the environment and support the intestinal wall. According to the manufacturer, the PMA-Zeolite in MED DARM REPAIR binds ammonium – a breeding ground for unfavourable bacteria – and thus contributes to improving the gut environment, regenerating the intestinal wall and relieving intestinal inflammation.

PMA-Zeolite in MED DARM REPAIR: The Study Situation

According to the manufacturer, a controlled study published in 2021 suggests that PMA-Zeolite can strengthen the intestinal barrier and favourably influence the microbiome. The PMA-Zeolite binds ammonium and other pollutants in the gut and releases minerals in exchange, which can contribute to improving the gut environment. A further study cited by the manufacturer suggests a marked relief of irritable bowel symptoms.

According to the manufacturer, MED DARM REPAIR as an "all-in-one" product can help relieve several irritable bowel symptoms:

  • Diarrhoea and constipation
  • Bloating
  • Abdominal pain
  • Intestinal inflammation
  • and can thus support quality of life

Questions About Irritable Bowel & MED DARM REPAIR

Irritable bowel syndrome is a functional disorder of the gastrointestinal tract without an organic cause. It is diagnosed when complaints such as diarrhoea, bloating or abdominal pain last longer than three months. The diagnosis is made by a doctor after ruling out other causes.

A permeable gut (leaky gut) is often associated with irritable bowel syndrome. When the intestinal wall loses its filter and protective function, this burdens the gut, immune system and other organs.

According to the manufacturer, the PMA-Zeolite in MED DARM REPAIR binds ammonium and pollutants in the gut and can thus improve the gut environment, contribute to the regeneration of the intestinal wall and relieve irritable bowel symptoms. It is a medical device and does not replace medical treatment.

Both forms contain the same active ingredient – 100% PMA-Zeolite. The powder can be stirred into water, the capsules are practical for on the go. Which form suits you best is up to your preference.
