Send us a textWhen you're battling inflammatory bowel disease, the wounds aren't always visible. Beyond the physical symptoms lies a reality many patients face but few discuss openly – the psychological impact of medical trauma.Dr. Christina Jagielski, clinical health psychologist at Michigan Medicine, brings her expertise to this powerful conversation about trauma-informed care in the IBD community. With surprising candor, she reveals how she discovered that approximately half of gastroenterologists avoid screening for trauma history – not because they don't care, but because they feel unprepared to respond appropriately to what patients might share.Through Robin's emotional personal story of emergency room panic attacks and medical gaslighting, we witness firsthand how past medical experiences shape current healthcare interactions. The conversation dives deep into practical strategies for both patients and providers: how to communicate triggers without reliving trauma, why certain medical settings feel unsafe, and what small changes can make enormous differences in patient comfort.Dr. Jagielski challenges the longstanding approach of selective trauma screening based on gender or diagnosis, advocating instead for universal trauma-informed care. "People living with IBD are so much more than their labs and test results," she reminds us, emphasizing that acknowledging patients' lived experiences is just as crucial as treating their physical symptoms.Whether you're a patient who's experienced medical trauma, a healthcare provider seeking to create safer spaces, or someone supporting a loved one with IBD, this episode offers transformative insights into healing the hidden psychological wounds of chronic illness.

In this episode of the How To Carnivore podcast, I sit down with Dane Johnson, founder of Crohn's Colitis Lifestyle, to explore his incredible journey from near-death at age 27 to thriving by taking ownership of his healing process. Dane shares how he went from debilitating IBD symptoms and heavy medication use to building a global movement focused on natural recovery from Crohn's and colitis. We dive into the mindset shift required to heal chronic illness realising that no doctor can do it for you. Instead, you must become the CEO of your own health. We discuss: - Dane's powerful story of overcoming Crohn's - Why healing starts with taking radical responsibility - Practical tools like hyperbaric therapy, saunas, lymphatic drainage & targeted nutrition - How to visualise your recovery and feed your mind solution-oriented content - Our shared values of root-cause healing, lifestyle optimization, and self-experimentation While Dane isn't strictly carnivore (he's meat-based and follows what works for him), we align on the core principles of healing from the inside out. This conversation offers powerful insights especially for anyone facing chronic illness or seeking to reclaim control over their health journey.

In this episode of the RCP Medicine podcast, Professor Ailsa Hart and Dr Eathar Shakweh discuss how to approach managing Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) in the acute medical setting. This is the first episode of a 2-part series, with a focus on ulcerative colitis.  IBD is a common condition, affecting 1 in 123 people in the UK.

Send us a textAshley and Danielle discuss the significant relationship between vitamin D levels and colorectal cancer risk, particularly in individuals with IBD. We talk about the role of Vitamin D in inflammation reduction, and the importance of maintaining optimal vitamin D levels for overall health. We highlight research findings that suggest higher vitamin D levels may correlate with lower rates of colon cancer!  We always emphasize with our patients that supplementation strategies are very individualized and based on the patient's health conditions and dietary intake. So, please check with your doctor or dietitian about your vitamin D levels and possible supplementation if needed. TakeawaysVitamin D is crucial for immune function and inflammation regulation.Many individuals with IBD are at risk for vitamin D deficiency.A research study shows that higher vitamin D levels may lead to lower colorectal cancer rates.Regular testing of vitamin D levels is important, especially for those with IBD.Diet alone may not provide sufficient vitamin D; supplementation is often necessary.Individual health status and lifestyle factors should guide vitamin D supplementation.Consulting healthcare providers about vitamin D levels is essential.Maintaining optimal vitamin D levels can decrease other health risks too.00:00- The Link Between Vitamin D and Colorectal Cancer03:11- Understanding Vitamin D's Role in Inflammatory Bowel Disease06:04- Optimal Vitamin D Levels and Recommendations09:10- Individualized Approaches to Vitamin D SupplementationFollow us on instagram @crohns_and_colitis_dietitiansFollow us on youtube @thecrohnscolitisdietitiansWe love helping provide quality content on IBD nutrition and making it more accessible to all through our podcast, instagram and youtube channel.

Natural and artificla lights are everywhere, but only one of them makes you sick. You have photomreceptors in your skin and eyes that take in (natural) light to regulate everything from you sleep/wake cycle, how much you sun tan or burn and even your energy production. But artificial light disrupts all of these processes and actually leads to early aging and sickness. Yet the average American spends 93% of their life indoors, surrounded by toxic artificial light.   TOPICS DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODE: Natural vs artificial light waves and how they work in your body Infrared vs near infrared light The benefits of green and blue lights The dangers of indoor lighting The sunlight and skin cancer paradox Steps you can take right now to improve your light adn your environment to optimize your health   More from Mito Red Light: Instagram: @mitoredlightofficial Linked In: @scottchaverri Website: mitoredlight.com Email: info@mitoredlight.com     Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

Dane Johnson, board certified nutritionist and the founder of Crohn's Colitis Lifestyle, a company dedicated to helping people with IBD achieve deep healing through a blend of holistic nutrition, targeted supplementation, and personalized guidance. Dane started showing signs of IBD at the age of 19 when he noticed some blood in his stool and at 23 years old he couldn't ignore his symptoms any longer. After several years of going to various doctors and spending thousands of dollars trying to get treatment, Dane learned that he needed to be his biggest advocate and listen to his body. Once Dane started taking control of his own health he came up with a strategy for taking his health back.   In this episode of Conversations For Health, Dane and I discuss practitioner tactics for battling inflammatory bowel disease including Crohn's and colitis, microscopic colitis, and proctitis. We examine the correlation between chronic reactivating viruses and exposure to fungal, common findings in keystone species and pathogenic bacteria, and first steps in clinically addressing IBD and IBS, including probiotics and issuing patients low-risk, high-reward challenges.

Send us a textAmanda Phillips never imagined her lifelong battle with Crohn's disease would transform into a business helping other people living with chronic illnesses. But after decades of unexplained stomach pains, missed diagnoses, and learning to navigate life with IBD, that's exactly what happened.Amanda takes us through her journey from childhood stomach aches dismissed as "just constipation" to her eventual diagnosis at 17. We explore how she learned to identify her personal flare triggers—stress and GI bugs being the major culprits—and the profound anxiety this created around situations most people take for granted, like commuting to work or being around sick family members.The pandemic became an unexpected turning point in Amanda's health journey. Working remotely eliminated the bathroom-related stress of her daily commute. When her company pushed employees back to the office, Amanda fought for accommodations, facing frustrating resistance from HR despite documentation showing remote work improved her health and performance.The birth of Be Well came during a February 2022 hospitalization, when Amanda found herself freezing in a standard hospital gown. Looking around at the medical wear available, she thought, "I can do better than this." What makes Amanda's approach unique is her commitment to meaningful design. Every Be Well product—from symptom tracking journals to discreet pill holders to comfort items with inspirational quotes—comes from lived experience and continuous customer feedback with a focus on prioritizing patient comfort, dignity, and practicality. Now she's expanding into new territory with hospital gowns, non-metal MRI hoodies, and more innovations. Whether you're living with chronic illness or supporting someone who is, this episode offers inspiration in turning personal challenges into purpose and creating solutions that truly understand patient needs.Links: Link to the BeWell websiteLink to BroGloInformation about IBD and work- Crohn's & Colitis Foundation- USAMy guest co-host, Stacey Calabro's episodeLet's get social!!Follow us on Instagram!Follow us on Facebook!Follow us on Twitter!

Your doctor tells you that your health problems "run in the family", so you accept your fate and move on. But this is WRONG. Your genes do not dictate disease. In fact, blaming your genes is so wrong, it should be considered medical malpractice.

Send us a textIn this powerful episode, I sit down with Dane Johnson—holistic nutritionist and founder of Crohn's Colitis Lifestyle—to unpack his journey of reversing life-threatening Crohn's disease using natural, integrative therapies. After multiple hospitalisations, failed medications, and being told he had few options left, Dane made the radical decision to take charge of his own recovery. What followed was years of experimentation, research, and ultimately the development of the S.H.I.E.L.D. method—his signature approach to managing and reversing IBD.We explore the tools and therapies that helped Dane regain his health, including targeted supplements, herbal protocols, mindset work, and key dietary shifts. We also touch on the emotional toll of chronic illness, what it's like to challenge conventional narratives around disease, and how to rebuild hope when your body feels like it's failing you.If you or someone you love is navigating Crohn's, colitis, or another chronic gut condition, this conversation is both eye-opening and deeply encouraging. It's a reminder that with the right strategy and support, recovery is possible—even when it seems out of reach.Connect with Dane Johnson

In this episode, we detail the oral microbiome and its relationship with the intestinal microbiome, detailing the oral-gut microbiota axis. We discuss the stepwise development of oral biofilm, the transition from plaque to dental calculus, and potential systemic impacts of oral dysbiosis, while highlighting intestinal health and focusing on Fusobacterium nucleatum. We then detail possible symptoms of oral dysbiosis as well as testing modalities. Topics:1. Overview of the Oral Microbiome and the Oral-Gut Axis - The oral cavity and the gut: microbially dense sites. - These regions are anatomically distinct but connected and capable of influencing each other. - The oral microbiome: bacterial species, fungi, viruses, archaea, protozoa. - Microbial distribution is influenced by the topography and chemistry of various oral surfaces. 2. Oral Cavity Anatomy and Microenvironments - The oral cavity is divided into the vestibule and oral cavity proper. - Lined by oral mucosa, which varies in structure. - These anatomical variations create unique ecological niches that support different microbial populations. 3. Tooth Structure and Relevance to Microbial Colonization - Teeth are embedded in the alveolar processes of the maxilla and mandible. - Tooth structure. - Long-term microbial colonization and biofilm development. 4. Biofilm / Dental Plaque Development - Biofilm begins with the formation of the acquired pellicle.- Pioneer species secreting extracellular polymeric substances (EPS).- Secondary colonizers coaggregate.- Coaggregation is species-specific.- Example.- Aerobes can lower local oxygen levels, creating micro anaerobic niches that support obligate anaerobes. 5. Maturation of the Biofilm  - Biofilm composition shifting to anaerobic, proteolytic species such as P. gingivalis. - F. nucleatum: a bridge species. 6. Mineralization and Formation of Dental Calculus - Mineralization, calcium and phosphate deposition. - Dental calculus. - Can promote further accumulation and worsen inflammation. 7. Oral Dysbiosis  - An imbalance in the oral microbial community. - Potential signs and symptoms. - Halitosis, swollen or bleeding gums, tooth sensitivity, new cavities, dry mouth or altered taste, recurrent infections, coated tongue, plaque buildup near the gumline. 8. Oral-Gut Axis and Systemic Implications - Physical, chemical, biochemical, and immunological barriers aid in preventing oral bacteria from colonizing the gut. - Oral bacteria can potentially impact intestinal health. -  F. nucleatum and IBD. 9. Oral Microbiome Testing10. Multi-Factorial Get Chloe's Book Today!

Send us a textWhen your gastroenterologist is also your dad, navigating the complexities of Crohn's disease takes on a whole new dimension. Angie's powerful story reveals a journey of discovery, resilience, and unexpected insights into managing IBD through life's major transitions.Diagnosed in 2017 following a period of intense personal stress, Angie shares her quest to understand why she developed Crohn's without family history. Her analytical approach has led to fascinating observations about potential triggers and management strategies. Most notably, she's discovered her Apple Watch provides possible early warnings of impending flares through heart rate variability changes.The conversation takes a particularly compelling turn when Angie discusses her pregnancy experience. While initially smooth, a flare during her third trimester created significant concerns about her baby's development. She candidly shares how her medical team balanced medication adjustments with pregnancy safety, ultimately leading to the birth of her healthy son. Beyond medical management, Angie reveals how her experience with cold exposure seemed to help her, and how changing her relationship with exercise from aesthetic goals to gratitude for movement transformed her approach to fitness. Her perspective on finding meaning through chronic illness challenges listeners to consider how difficulties might lead to unexpected gifts – deeper connections, greater self-awareness, and opportunities to help others.Whether you're newly diagnosed, preparing for pregnancy with IBD, or simply seeking fresh insights on managing a chronic condition, Angie's story offers valuable perspectives from someone who's navigating these waters with honesty, humor, and hope.

This is the first of our new podcast series, "Save the Gut". The script has been flipped and Dr Vrushali will be asking Shukul questions that Doctors commonly have about nutrition and gut health. This episode is about the importance of fibre. Enjoy.Take action If you want to embark on a self-healing journey alone, the first step is an easy one, and that is, to take action. Not tomorrow either. Ask yourself, "What's something I can do right now?" Perhaps it's to write a shopping list, go for a walk, check out some of our recipes, www.highcarbhealth.com/ebooks head to the grocery store to pick up some fruits and vegetables, or prepare to go to bed on time to get a good night's sleep. Whatever it is, even if it's something you perceive to be tiny, just do it. Because action breeds action, and guess what, inaction leads to inaction.

Gastroenterologist Shamita B. Shah discusses her article, "How doctors can help IBD patients manage symptoms between visits." Addressing the rising prevalence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in the U.S., Shamita highlights the challenges patients face managing unpredictable symptoms like pain and diarrhea, even while on therapy, often leading to undertreatment and complications. She outlines three key ways physicians can empower patients for better self-management between appointments: First, engaging patients to track symptoms using tools like wearable devices or digital platforms incorporating patient-reported outcomes (PROs), citing studies showing these methods can predict flares and significantly reduce emergency room visits (by 48 percent) and hospitalizations (by 78 percent). Second, educating patients on the diet-disease connection, recommending approaches like the Mediterranean diet and the use of food diaries (potentially via apps) to identify individual triggers. Third, providing patients with a comprehensive health maintenance checklist, such as the one from the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation, to ensure accountability for crucial screenings (cancer, mental health) and vaccinations, especially important for those on immunosuppressive therapies. Actionable takeaways focus on physicians proactively equipping patients with these tracking tools, dietary guidance, and checklists to foster better disease control and quality of life.
