• IBD solutions for those who can't find answers.

    If you’ve tried every drug, program or medical intervention for your Crohn’s or Colitis, and don’t feel like you’re getting the help you need from your doctor, you’re in the right place.

Do you struggle with:

  • IBD or severe IBS?

  • Uncontrolled diarrhea or constipation?

  • Painful bowel movements?

  • Constant pain and chronic fatigue?

  • Always worrying about where the bathroom is?

  • Anxiety that you might have an accident?

  • Medication dependence?

  • Being unable to enjoy food?

Welcome to The Gut Health Solution. Our proven process that works so well, even doctors have said…

“That’s impossible!”

Fully customized programs

Your body is unique. That’s why a basic program off the internet doesn’t work for you. We do a complete assessment and create a fully customized plan based on your medical history.

Constant Support

Most programs are designed to “set it and forget it”, which means you buy it and then you’re on your own… but not here. We walk you through every step to make sure you get the results you deserve.

Quick Results

Karen got relief in just 3 weeks after 16 years of pain. Cogan went from 40 bowel movements a day to just 4 in less than 3 weeks. Lora went from having constant pain and one bowel movement every 2 weeks, to 1-2 per day. These results are typical for our clients.

We helped them, and we can help you too.

How do we do it?

There are 3 things that create IBD

  1. Toxins: This can include pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, rodenticides, or any other “cides”, as well as heavy metals, chemicals, artificial sweeteners, colouring, preservatives, perfumes, and so much more. They may not cause problems individually, but they are in everything. This accumulation creates a “death by a thousand cuts” scenario.

  2. Microbial Imbalances: Your gut microbiomes is made up of 100 trillion bacterium that live in harmony with fungi, yeast, parasites, and viruses. Imbalances here can create a world of trouble for you and your gut!

  3. Diet and Nutrient Deficiencies: A poor diet full of processed foods, sugar, alcohol and other junk, leads to inflammation and nutrients deficiencies; but we can also become deficient when we’re eating well - this is due to modern farming practices stripping the soil. Studies suggest we might need up to 20 oranges today to get the nutrients our great grandmother would have from one orange.

3 things that lead to autoimmunity

  1. Genetics: Genes can make you more susceptible to IBD, but they don’t lock your fate. Genes load the gun, but all of these other factors are what pulls the trigger.

  2. Triggers: These can be any “stressful” event, or anything requiring extra work from your body: pregnancy, travelling, a traumatic event, surgery, antibiotic use, and so much more.

  3. Leaky gut: 70-90% of our immune system is in our gut, and when we have other factors creating imbalances, inflammation and problems with immune signalling, we can develop autoimmunity.

HOW DO WE FIX IT?

STEP 1: Find and REMOVE the problem. Inflammation is actually a good thing. This is your immune system trying to heal you! So, we have to ask “what is your immune system trying to heal you from?

STEP 2: We must REPLENISH your nutrients. With an inflamed gut, we’re not absorbing nutrients, and we’re using them in excess while your body is trying to heal. Now that we’ve removed the trigger, we can begin refilling your nutrient stores so your body can have the tools to heal itself.

STEP 3: Once we have a healthier body, we can REBUILD the microbiome, and restore the balance to this delicate ecosystem of 100 trillion bacteria.

STEP 4: IBD damages tissues; that’s why you bleed. So we must REPAIR the tissues, restoring the gut lining, preventing bleeding and giving your bacteria a better home to live and grow.

STEP 5: Finally, we can REJUVENATE your immune system, and help bring it back to balance.

You don’t have to figure this out by yourself.

Your health is important. You’re important.

It’s time to get the help you deserve.

This is for you if you…

Our clients

Hi, I’m Josh Dech,

ex-Paramedic and Holistic Nutritionist

And I can’t wait to help you get your life back and never have to worry about gut issues again.

I struggled with gut issues my whole life; my parents dealt with it and now, my clients do too. But we’re changing all of that!

With a proven process and fully customized programs, we’ve been able to take even some of the most extreme cases of IBD, severe IBS and other uncontrolled gut issues and turn them around in just a couple of weeks; even after specialists and doctors said it couldn’t be done.

We specialize in fixing the gut issues that doctors and medications haven’t been able to help.

You’re in good hands.

“His acumen and presentation style make him a very good asset for the functional medicine teaching academy.”

Yusuf (JP) Saleeby, MD

I was first introduced to Josh Dech by one of my colleagues at our functional medical center (Carolina Holistic Medicine).  My nurse practitioner was referring some of our IBS/IBD patients to Josh for assistance in coaching and diet/nutrition help. 

After inviting Josh to join me on some Telemedicine encounters as well as the Master Classes we offered each month, I was very impressed with his fund of knowledge about gut health and general principles of functional medicine.  I have seen Josh at work on several patients we co-manage, and we have referred back and forth.

In 2023 I asked Josh to join the faculty at the Priority Health Academy that I founded in 2017.  His acumen and presentation style make him a very good asset for the functional medicine teaching academy.  He is able to share his knowledge with other aspiring functional medicine practitioners.

  • The Gut Health Solution is a fully customized16-week program, broken up into 4, 4 week modules:

    1. Find the root causes:

    These are steps that Western medicine often misses. Instead, it just blocks symptoms with drugs rather than actually getting to the root causes and contributing factors.

    2. Repair the tissue:

    We can’t have a healthy body with damaged tissue. In order to rebalance your bacteria and improve long term health that lasts, we need to repair all of the damage done from the inflammation.

    3. Rebuild the microbiome:

    Your bacteria are at the centre of everything; arguably more than your very DNA. In 99% of the cases of IBD and IBS that we see, there’s uncontrolled bacteria; even some classified as “autoimmune/ inflammatory” bacteria.

    4. Rejuvenate the Immune System:

    Many people understand what it means to “boost” the immune system, but what we really want to do is rejuvenate it. After all, that’s the reason why autoimmunity happens!

  • Absolutely. We’ve worked with clients from all around the world; in countries like the USA, Australia, New Zealand, the UK, other parts of Europe, Vietnam and more.

  • Every client is different, but the most common tests we do are stool, urine, hair and sometimes blood, depending on the need.

    We work with private labs all over the country (and internationally) to make sure you have access to everything you may need.

  • We're going to guide you through every step needed to correct the things contributing to your gut issues. 

    This includes an extremely thorough assessment, a completely customized meal plan, supplement recommendations to bridge the gap until your body can heal itself, hand-holding weekly coaching calls, weekly check-ins, lessons and guides... and so much more.

    It almost sounds “too simple” and that’s the point.

    You're never going to be left on your own; we're here to guide you through this process so that you come out the other side healthier and happier than ever before!

    This is the most effective process I have ever seen; so much so that we’re now working with doctors in clinics across the country to help them with their patients.

  • The truth is, it would either be a lie or medically ignorant to say that this program will work for 100% of people, all the time.

    But I will say this: I haven't had a single client go through this program, do the work and not get the results they were looking for, or better. 

    In over 10 years of doing this, the only people who aren’t successful are the ones who don’t do the work.

  • We stand by our work, and we want to make sure you get results; but some cases are trickier than others and just take more time.

    If you finish the program completely, and don’t get results, we’ll continue helping you inside our program, for free, until you do get results.

  • We offer both private and small group programs to match all needs and budgets and we don’t create cookie-cutter programs which is why we have such an thorough intake process.

    On top of our own assessments and intake forms, we also review any blood work, medical tests, medications,  supplements or other things you're taking as they pertain to your case.

    Sometimes, this even means connecting and consulting with any other medical professionals you may be seeing in relation to your gut health.

    After all of this is done, we send you a fully customized and easy to follow program that will get you from constant pain, medication and uncontrolled bowels, to having total control over your gut!

  • Our private and small group programs have different price points, from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars, so we have different price ranges to match almost every budget!

  • This is a "yes" and "no" sort of question.

    Supplements can certainly help speed things along and bridge the gap until your body can take care of itself.

    But are they absolutely necessary to get healthy again? Sometimes they are and sometimes they aren’t, but we STRONGLY recommend them in most circumstances.

    We don't sell supplements directly, but we will recommend certain brands that we trust and help you source them from affordable sources.

Let us take care of your gut.

Your life depends on it.
