TOPICS DISCUSSED:

  • How stress and trauma cause bowel disease and contribute to flares
  • How stressors affect your immune system

We’re talking about the difference between “normal” and “optimal”, how you can easily understand your blood or other lab results without going back to school to become a doctor, and what other options there are to see what’s ac...

One of the biggest contributors to long term bowel disease, and your inability to heal, is nutrient deficiencies.  This is dangerous because your body needs raw materials – nutrient deficiencies disrupt cellular signalling, weaken your ability to repair, and they force your immune system to operate in a constant state of chaos and breakdown, which is one of the reasons IBD appears to be autoimmune, even though it isn’t.

There's nothing quite as comforting as being gaslit by your doctor when they say that the symptoms all over your body are not connected to your gut. Of course they are - your doctor just doesn't understand it.

This episode is going to help you understand how and why the symptoms you're experiencing all over (skin, headaches, allergies, depression/anxiety, hormone issues, etc.) are NOT just in your head.

Your doctor lied. They may not have meant to, but they did. Bowel diseases like Crohn's, Colitis, Diverticulitis, and IBS, are not at all what you've been told.

Can IBD actually be healed, or even cured? To say "no" would be to assume that inflammation is a random occurrence, which isn’t possible. So we have to say “yes”, because once you know what’s causing it, you can remove the problem and inflammation should stop. 

I do believe that we will see a true cure in the coming years.
