Gut Health Essentials | Nutrition, Indigo Naturalis (Qing Dai), Curcumin, Kefir & IBDU | GHH Ep. 10
In this episode of Good Health Hunting, I sit down with Thomas Kuchenbrod, who shares his powerful story of dealing with ulcerative colitis. Diagnosed during his freshman year of college, Thomas quickly realized that conventional advice wasn’t cutting it. Despite being told that diet didn’t matter, he knew there had to be a better way. Thomas talks about his journey from a standard American diet to discovering the benefits of nutrition and supplements like Indigo Naturalis (Qing Dai), Butyrate, and Curcumin. He dives into the importance of stabilizing your health first and then addressing the root causes. Plus, he shares how working with Dane Johnson and launching IBD University is helping people all over the world tackle IBD. If you’re looking for practical tips and some serious inspiration, this episode is for you.

High Carb Health's Colitis & Crohn's Reset | Apology, Weight Gain, Flare Foods, Routines, & Faith | GHH Ep. 9
High Carb Health founders, brothers Shukul and Shamiz Kachwall, discuss their approach to coaching clients with IBD through a whole food plant-based diet. Shamiz shares his inspiring recovery from a severe case of ulcerative colitis through this diet, highlighting the potential for significant gut health improvements. They emphasize the importance of understanding the body's self-healing process and the role of lifestyle factors such as sleep, hydration, mental health, and exercise. The brothers also discuss their personal routines, which involve a diet rich in fruits, greens, and starches, and regular exercise. They stress the importance of understanding the root cause of IBD and focusing on long-term healing rather than quick fixes. Additionally, Kenny addresses his 2019 video regarding his time as a client of High Carb Health and offers an apology.

The Smart & Adaptive Way To Fight Ulcerative Colitis & Crohn's | Good Health Hunting Ep. 6
Harry is a friend and former client who's taken a unique combination approach to fighting IBD. You can find Harry on instagram at https://www.instagram.com/balistorylab/. In this episode we cover a range of topics including Harry's current protocol, cabbage juice, training, mindset/perspective, and even a little bit of theology. I want people dealing with IBD to know that there are multiple ways to structure and adapt their approach to improving their health and lives— and I hope they find encouragement seeing how other people do exactly that.

How Colonoscopies Impact The Gut Microbiome | IBD Clinical Remission
Watch the full Good Health Hunting episode here: https://youtu.be/p3kth-EEu_g.
Just to be clear, I very much recommend that you work with your doctor and follow your doctor's advice regarding colonoscopies. Colonoscopies are a very important way to monitor inflammatory/disease activity and are very important for preventing/diagnosing colon cancer, which can help inform any necessary treatment and improve outcomes. Just also be aware that colonoscopy prep can impact the gut microbiome and it may be worth putting extra focus into improving and fortifying your gut microbiome after having a colonoscopy procedure.

Gut Health Travel Hacks After IBD | Italy Food Tour
This video is sponsored by a top-tier gut microbiome testing company— Ombre Lab. If you use the following link, we receive compensation and YOU get a $30 discount on your Ombre gut microbiome test: https://tryombre.com/Honnas.
This video is also sponsored by another top-tier gut microbiome testing company— Viome. If you use the following link and enter the code "Honnas20" at checkout you will receive a $20 discount on your Viome gut microbiome test: https://viomehq.sjv.io/biomeoptima.
► Why Test Your Gut Microbiome?
We obviously think that gut microbiome testing is really important. Our goal is to provide you with as many gut health resources as possible so that you can choose which one is right for you. I think the most helpful thing that gut microbiome testing can provide is a list of recommended foods based on the results of your test. These recommended foods are intended to move your specific gut microbiome towards eubiosis. Each individual’s gut microbiome is unique, so certain foods that might be better for your gut microbiome might not be as good for someone else. Testing helps eliminate the trial and error of finding out which foods are best for you by simply recommending foods that will improve your specific gut microbiome profile. Click the links above and check out both Ombre Lab and Viome to see which one will be better for you.
