It’s painful seeing so much sickness and ill-health. And one of the big reasons for so much sickness is the pain so many people’s guts are in. IBS, Chron’s disease and ulcerative colitis are becoming more common for more people, and tragically as young as 6 months old. This episode is a true gut health masterclass , with someone who really knows his gut stuff and is having real clinical success with real people, Josh Dech.

Josh Dech is a Holistic Nutritionist and IBD specialist who believes that doctors often miss the mark by simply prescribing medication that masks symptoms. He advocates for functional medicine, focusing on addressing the root causes of health issues rather than just treating the symptoms. With his Gut 911 approach, Josh aims to heal the gut, rebuild the microbiome, and restore freedom to his clients’ lives by addressing the underlying causes of digestive diseases like Crohn’s and Colitis. His success in reversing these conditions led him to partner with medical clinics across the country, and he now shares his expertise as a medical lecturer for the Priority Health Academy, teaching doctors to implement his approach. Josh’s extensive background includes being a Physician’s Consultant for IBD and IBS, a former paramedic, and the Scientific Strategist and Education Director for the Root Cause For Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation.

Join us as we explore:

  • What is at the root of the continuous rise of gut imbalance conditions like Chron’s and colitis, and why the North American population has over 50% of the GLOBAL cases of serious gut disease.
  • How it’s possible to cure - YES CURE - the most serious of gut imbalance in just 16 weeks by following Josh’s Gut 911 approach.
  • The three reasons you get gut disease, the three ways to treat, reverse and cure them and the specific detox protocols and tools Josh finds success with.
  • How detoxing as principle is woefully misunderstood, leading to worse symptoms and outcomes.
  • The difference between IBD and IBS, and why Josh doesn’t believe a specific diagnosis between IBD, IBS, Chron’s or colitis is critical to treating, reversing and curing it.
  • Why your gut health is about a lot more than what you eat.
