Today, I am thrilled to connect with Josh Dech. Josh is a former paramedic and holistic nutritionist specializing in Crohn's, Colitis, and other gut-related disorders. He has collaborated with some of the most renowned doctors worldwide, and he serves as a medical lecturer at the Priority Health Academy, where he educates doctors on the holistic approach to gut health and inflammatory bowel disease. In today's conversation, we explore the alarming statistic that 50% of all gut diseases occur in the United States, and the 105 million ambulatory care visits, 14 million hospital admissions, 236,000 deaths, and the 142 billion dollars these conditions cost annually. We dive into the impact of chronic stress, toxins, nutrient deficiencies, and life stages on gut health, and we look at the significance of the vagal nerve, the microbiome, and how it impacts mental health. We also cover dysbiosis, stool and organic acid testing, nutritional choices, and supplements.
