Summary

In this episode, Dr. Jade Teta interviews Josh Dech, a clinical nutritionist, about gut health and its impact on overall well-being. They discuss the connection between gut dysfunction and diseases like Crohn's and colitis, challenging the notion that these conditions are incurable. Josh shares a success story of healing a woman with Crohn's disease and an anal vaginal fistula through dietary changes and natural remedies. They explore the three main factors contributing to gut disease: toxins, microbial imbalances, and diet nutrient deficiencies. The conversation also covers the progression from irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and the importance of individualized treatment. The conversation explores the importance of proper detoxification and drainage pathways in maintaining gut health. It emphasizes the need to address issues such as elevated beta glucuronidase and junky bile, which can lead to hormonal imbalances and PMS symptoms. The conversation also highlights the significance of addressing parasites and fungal infections in gut health. The progression from IBS to IBD (Crohn's and colitis) is discussed, along with the role of autoimmune conditions in gut health. The conversation concludes with the reminder that a diagnosis is just a word describing symptoms and that it's important to address the underlying causes.
