The digestive lining does more than separate food from the rest of the body. It helps protect tissue, coordinates with immune defenses, and absorbs nutrients through specialized structures such as the small intestine’s villi.
The Gut Lining and Its Defenses explores mucus, absorption, inflammation, and intestinal permeability in plain language. It distinguishes conditions that can damage the lining from broad “leaky gut” claims, and explains why symptoms alone cannot show whether villi are injured. The book closes with a scripture reflection.
