A bone marrow disorder is a less common, more serious cause of elevated white blood cells. Leukemia is the most frequent culprit. With this type of cancer, the bone marrow produces large numbers of defective white blood cells and releases them into the blood. Other bone marrow disorders, such as polycythemia vera, can also increase the WBC count.
Leaky gut syndrome is said to have symptoms including bloating, gas, cramps, food sensitivities, and aches and pains. But it's something of a medical mystery. âFrom an MDâs standpoint, itâs a very gray area,â says gastroenterologist Donald Kirby, MD, director of the Center for Human Nutrition at the Cleveland Clinic.
Depending on the intensity of your leaky gut, the healing process can take anywhere from 30-60 days, or years. People will no longer have symptoms, and have better energy and moods. You can always retest your symptoms to see if your risk has lowered (which would indicate healing!) with my online quiz.
