Shann is the founder of Chuckling Goat, a multi million pound empire and business, on a mission to help thousands - yet it all started with a goat named Buddug. Shann's passion is helping new entrepreneurs to find their purpose and launch their own successful, heart-centred business.
Shann Nix Jones talks to TRE's Hannah Murray
Shann Nix Jones was a San Francisco city girl and radio talk show host who fell in love with a Welsh goat farmer named Rich. When Rich contracted a life-threatening superbug infection and doctors were unable to help, Shann saved his life with a combination of natural remedies, including the kefir they make together on the farm. In 2015, Shann’s diaries of their adventures saving Rich’s life quickly became Chuckling Goat’s first best-selling book. Today Shann is a go-to expert on gut health and the author of three Amazon best selling books on the subject. Her latest book is called The Kefir Solution: Natural Healing for IBS, Depression and Anxiety.

Are you ready for another dose of helpful information about what goat milk kefir can do for you and your health? In part 2 of my interview with Shann Nix Jones, the owner of Chuckling Goat, we talk more about IBS, depression, and anxiety, and the possible natural remedies for those conditions. Visit https://www.bodyshotperformance.com/podcasts-blog for the complete show notes of every podcast episode. Topics Discussed in this Episode: The effects of dopamine versus serotonin The 4 Cs that you can do to get serotonin Why you need tryptophan and where you can find it The problem with taking anti-depressant drugs or SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors) The causes and symptoms of IBS How goat milk kefir can help with IBS Key Takeaways: You can either experience pleasure or you can be happy but you can’t be both. Biochemically, the experience of pleasure and the experience of happiness are two different things. The experience of pleasure is something that you get from the reward circuit or the dopamine circuit in your brain. The problem with dopamine is that it is a neurotoxic chemical that damages the receptor on the other end over time. Eventually, that receptor cell will die, and at that point, you have a full-blown addiction. Serotonin, on the other hand, creates that calm, zen-like feeling of happiness that is actually sustainable. You can reduce the amount of dopamine and increase the amount of serotonin by making good food choices. Medical doctors don’t have a solution for IBS because it’s about your gut bugs. But the science is in, and there is an answer, there is a solution. Action Steps: Make that switch in your lifestyle and concentrate on serotonin activities and serotonin food. Try the natural remedies first before you take any chemicals in your body. Get outside. The fastest thing you can do to make yourself feel better is taking a 15-minute walk outside. Boost your immune system by getting under the trees and inhaling the phytochemicals coming off the trees. Interact with nature by growing plants. Look at your personal care products and your household cleaning products and see how you can make them more natural. Shann said: “It is an incredibly serious thing to block your body from absorbing serotonin because it is not just your brain that absorbs serotonin, it is your entire body, every single organ… You block that, you increase your risk of death by 33%.” “They have now shown that it is a disruption in your gut bugs that actually cause IBS... It is dysbiosis. Whether or not your doctor knows it’s dysbiosis, if they don’t know it, then they haven’t done their reading. The science is out there. You tell them to go and catch up.” Thanks for listening!

Are you looking for a natural remedy for IBS, depression, and anxiety? Look no further! Chuckling Goat owner Shann Nix Jones is back in the podcast and this time she talks all about gut health and the wonders that goat milk kefir could do for IBS, depression, and anxiety. Visit https://www.bodyshotperformance.com/podcasts-blog for the complete show notes of every podcast episode. Topics Discussed in this Episode: Gut health and the gut-brain connection Shann’s Yellowstone Park analogy of the gut The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse or the four things that cause damage to our guts The benefits of ashwagandha Key Takeaways: Natural healing is a bumpy up-and-down road. It’s not always straightforward. It can be one step forward, two steps back. Natural healing is not like suppressing a symptom with a chemical, which can happen instantly and which is temporary. Your gut and your brain are connected. They all work together because of something called serotonin inside your system. If you have IBS, chances are excellent that you will develop anxiety and depression within the year. And if you have anxiety and/or depression, chances are also excellent that you will develop IBS within the year. Action Steps: Drink kefir and rewild your gut. Sign up for a vegetable delivery service, preferably one that comes straight from the farm where they just pull up what’s good to go. Take the challenge of eating 50 different foods in a week. Take collagen every day, and take ashwagandha. If you drink coffee, take your coffee a few hours after you wake up rather than right off the bat. Get rid of household products containing triclosan. Shann said: “To resolve your IBS will also resolve anxiety and depression. And you can enter that loop at any point… It’s obviously easier to treat your gut than it is to treat your brain, but all of those issues resolve together.” “Modern life is just ironing us out. And it’s sort of getting rid of all the biodiversity in our systems. The health of an ecosystem is tested and measured by the number of links between the organisms in it. That’s the health of an organism. It’s complex.” Thanks for listening!

A few weeks ago I drove across to West Wales to meet Shann Nix Jones. Shann tells the story of how she left her job as a talk show host in the US with over 1m listeners a night to move to Wales with her then husband. That relationship didn’t work out, and Shann found herself alone with her two children in a small Welsh village wondering what to do next. She met Rich, a neighbouring farmer, and together they now run a thriving business called Chuckling Goat, providing goat milk skincare products and goat milk kefir. The benefits of these products have been proven to help with asthma, eczema, IBS and IBD, bronchial infections and gut health issues. This was a really fun interview, and Shann’s knowledge of gut health and the benefits kefir can bring are eye-opening. Links to the products can be found below – enjoy!

Eczema is an incredibly common skin disorder, however there is still no solution to curing it through conventional medicine means. For Shann Nix Jones, this was not an option as her son was suffering from eczema. At the same time, her husband had a life-threatening MRSA infection that was resistant to antibiotics. Doctors were unable to help her in both cases so she took matters into her control and found her own natural remedy. Along the way she made an incredible discovery, that eczema is not actually a skin condition, but rather an autoimmune disorder. So rather than trying to treat eczema on the surface, she tried to figure out how best to treat it from within. How was she able to help both her son and her husband? What is the importance of our internal systems in showing externally? What does kefir and goat's milk have to do with all of this?
