I’ve been vegan for almost 30 years (yes really) but got diagnosed with severe Crohn’s , and I’m so glad I found this video. I have been told by a dietitian to reduce fiber and she even lamented that I was vegan because of the fiber. I’m going to get serious now about removing the processed things from my diet and joyfully adding back in some more fiber.

Informative video on Crohn’s disease! My cousin had severe Crohn’s, and we tried Planet Ayurveda’s Vatsakadi Churna and Digestion Support. It’s been a game-changer for him, and his symptoms are much more manageable now. I recommend their supplements to anyone dealing with Crohn’s.

Thank you for this video! Kutaj Ghan vati from Planet Ayurveda are very good and effective results on Crohn"s disease

How does a person get ulcers on the exterior of their interestins? This is Chrones. I wonder is PRO-STAT for internal wound healing would help?

Crohn’s Disease is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that affects the lining of the digestive tract. The nature of Crohn’s disease symptoms may vary according to individual dosha predominance and involvement. for complete treatment consult planet ayurveda team experts

Thank you. I'm vegan since 2000, whole food since well over a decade, have patients in my family with diseases which are bound to be helped by a Whole Food Fully Plant Based diet - Crohn's disease; rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes; cardiovascular disease, acidity/digestion troubles, asthma, hormonal problems - and have been sharing videos saying that. One person has become vegetarian but not vegan: I sometimes feel Indian vegetarians (20 to 30 per cent of the population, not the 70 or 80 percent people imagine) might be having more animal food than non vegetarians, obsessed as they are with paneerpaneerpaneer (firm dairy cottage cheese) out of a paranoia about proteinproteinprotein and also other dairy products, extrenely highly regarded here. The diseases remain. Oh well. I shall share this video for what the sharing is worth. Thank you for a good video that explains well.

This us where i get confused about which did diet to follow. Some other videos talk about getting healthy and no more crohns with carnivore diet this one is saying no meat to get better. I don't like either one because i love both meat and veggies together.

I like how you are promoting plant based diet. But does that mean wheat is ok to consume for kids with Crohns. I include bread, rice and oats as source of carbs along with non cruciferous vegetables.

Carnivore eggs diet plus low dose naltrexone !!! Long remissión for you.

Its revelant to notice that, the key is to keep low blood sugars and avoid foods your body constantly rejects when you are in inflamatory state, like monkey what avoid being burn by fire you need to make a list worst foods for you and best foods for you

Thanks a lot Dr Alan Desmond! I'm here for my friend actually, and I'd like to ask to people who have this disease take any medicine?

"Low fiber standard heavy animal diet contributes to or exacerbates symptoms" ~Plant-based bias health propaganda professionals 😂😂😂😂

A carnivore diet has been shown to heal autoimmune IBD diseases. Plants make things worse. Who is performing these so-called studies? People having to wear colostomy bags see gas and food parts of vegetables in their bags compared to those eating meat, eggs, fish, dairy. Do your research.

Don’t listen to this guy. Go on carnivore diet totally and you will bless me

Absolute shite talk. The carnivorous diet is the one now proven to have the best life changing benefits for Crohn's sufferer. As well as that immunity suppressing drugs are very common now and the need for surgery is not at all as drastic as you suggest. I think someone should sue you mate for this trashy video. By any chance are you a vegetarian or a vegan???

Just watch another video right before this that said the carnivore diet would probably be the best diet lol. Unreal all this money going into Viagra research and we can’t even have all of these so-called professionals on the same page for Crohn’s

Sorry this may b true for some. 4 me when I switched to Carnivore, I lost weight with no effort. ( 4stones by eating until I was full ss dr Ken berry tells us to.) no longer insulin resistance with threat of full blown Disbetes. BP no more tablets needed. I believe this is the natural way of eating for humans. Veg n crabs convert to sugar in your body quickly increasing blood sugars. I hope those seeking better health will go balance this info with dr Ken berry on carnivore eating. Try both see ehat works for YOU. Carnivore works 4 me. Been eating this wat for 3 years now - I am health, no medication at all. I'm 76.

Very interesting, I was diagnosed with Crohns disease in 2001, I was told to follow a low fibre diet which I have done for many years, is it now time to completely change my diet 🤔

Thank you so much. Have had Crohn's for 10yrs now. Had an operation, medications work to maintain for a while then stop, and flare ups are brutal. I hate eating food now and I'm tired of my stomach always hurting.

20 YEARS med free with Crohn’s! I eat basically a carnivore diet with occasional berries. ❤❤❤❤ veggies and grains damage me. We are all different. Modern diet is killing us..

Avoid all fibre, lectins, A1 casien, sugar. All of it.

Xantham gum is a bad one I think

plant based made me worse.. carnviore is the only healing i have seen in 10+ years with all my nutrient levels getting better and inflammatory markers improving. Saying that it doesn't help crohns is.... not true.

thank you so much for the important information. my 42 yr old son suffers from crohn’s disease, his diet is difficult to control.

I hate it when people cough all the time and ruin your presentation. Stay home if you are sick!

Wonderful talk about the benefits of a WFPB diet in Crohn's disease!

What was frustrating for me, was asking my doctor what diet I should eat at my last appointment and he told me to go to the Crohns and colitis website that was useless. I have tried whole food only Keto and whole food only Carnivore and I also even tried a liquid only protein smoothie diet. I finally realized that the only common denominator was dairy and animal products. I dont see my gastroenterologist again until October, so I am going too start a plant based whole food diet Friday the 14th of July giving me 3 months to give a Vegan diet a good try so I can let him know what worked.

What a joke. Great way to make and keep the money flowing in. Vegsnism is BS. #Carnivore

What about coffee and tea

What about legumes?

Plant based diets are full of land mines and not to be taken lightly. Lots of chemicals, dangers of heavy metals like those found in spinach and the list goes on. There are countless studies that directly contradict the messaging in this video. Give credit where it’s due…Yes, all the chemicals talked about here are to be avoided but that’s basic common sense for any diet. However, those on strict vegetarian diets are not providing their bodies with proper nutrition. Furthermore, fiber is just not necessary in virtually any diet. And for someone with Crohns, it can be detrimental causing blockages within the bowel. This is a fact. Any vegetable in substantial amount can do this as well. I’m 51 and was diagnosed over 25 years ago. I was tossed into a world of meds like steroids, and other standard Crohns meds/treatments. When I moved to a diet rich in the right fats, no seed oils, very little dairy, grass fed proteins, no processed foods, no emulsifiers, and no simple sugars, and no high fructose. And btw, 99% of almond milks and other nut milks are full of junk and very little of the nut itself. Please everyone, look at the interest behind this messaging which puts its conclusions in question at best. IT’S LITERALLY FUNDED BY AN ORGANIZATION CALLED VEGFUND! If you choose your diet based on philosophical principals then so be it. However, the human body was not built to live on a vegetarian diet. Do your research, become educated, and have many blessings!

An excellent and very helpful presentation. Dr. Desmond is wonderful. Gratitude.

In 2023 it's not yet very conclusive if a plant diet is really helping crohn's disease. However having a healthy diet without too much processed foods and meats is good nonetheless!

Someone please explain what to eat and what not. I can't understand well. Help me please for 6 years daughter please

Global deforestation is certainly one of the main culprits in so-called global warming, but not because of CO2.

Global warming is clearly not caused by CO2 traces radiating some infrared light.

Seems to be an either/or. Some say carnivore works, some say plant only. So a balance with the two doesn't work then. I was on a very fruit and veg centered diet, still with meat in smaller portions, and even some days there was no meat. But that didn't help me at all. And I feel quite ill now since last September with nausea and psoriasis, but the doctors don't seem to be able to figure it out. Azathioprine gave me pancreatitis. Then I went to Methotrexate which was then combined with Infliximab. After the third Infliximab I had to stop Methotrexate because my low white cell count. Three weeks later I started feeling extremely faint and two weeks after that developed a crazy postule rash which changed into psoriasis. Last Infliximab was end of October and I'm back on Methotrexate since two weeks ago. The past 5 months I've never been so sick in my whole life. I've been to A&E in 2022 more times than the rest of my whole life. Only since I've started to eat eggs more often, instead of once a week, I've started to feel marginally better. If the plant based evidence is so strong, especially regarding additives in food, why isn't the NHS influencing public policy so people can afford to eat more healthily? 🤔 I think I should just take a career break, because I've never ever been so ill ever. Things really kicked off when I took a promotion at work.

Each to their own, I think it comes down to you personally and your microbiome, to our family certain plants are very very inflammatory, grains are a hard no, along with legumes beans, tomatoes and some nuts - even those are tough as they are contaminated with other nuts, dairy or cow dairy also. Meat and fish works, preferably with pasture or wild raised animals. Lots and lots of Bone broth Meat or fish, every day and we're as happy as larry, whoever he is, For those of you suffering you must look after your microbiome, you need to seed it and feed it, soil based ones work for us, water kefir if you can't have dairy, we like coconut but it's not for everyone, find what works for you and you alone, in our family we have celiac, IBD, RA and MS, the things above had made all the difference, annoyingly it's different foods for each of us, wish you luck xxx PS. The study above is also sponsored by VegFund, it may be slightly skewed towards that, who knows

I don’t agree with this video. Are you a patient that has suffered with it. The one I watched before this one I do. Stop spreading misinformation so we can move forward.

What about maltodextrin in Modulen IBD?

ANd quite a few people get remission via meat only but zero metnion of those studies.

I do seem to feel worse wth emulsifiers.

EAT FIVER says a guy who never had a bowel obstruction.

Lets see. I eat whole plant foods, i feel like utter shit. I eat meat I feel better. Im sure eating someting that hurts like hell will cure me.

Aren’t the whole grains and nuts hard on the gut?

Im having crohns 8 years nowno symptoms at allbut still in diarrhea I loose my weight

Great presentation 👏🏿

I was vegan for 8 years I started getting ready sick after the first year of veganism. I ended up having horrible acne that I never had my entire life. My hair would fall out and I couldn't eat any fruit. If I ate a piece of fruit I would be bent over in tremendous pain for hours. I was just diagnosed with crohn's disease after years of suffering and the vegan community telling me I have fruit belly or my body was detoxing. I just feel lost because I truly believe in the vegan diet but after I stopped the diet my face completely cleared up and I can eat fruits again. I now have to face my diagnosis and I feel like I'm lost. I don't have as many stomach episodes now which is nice. I wish someone could help me.

I don't suppose you have a diet sheet for us to follow? This would be very helpful. I have Crohn's disease, had surgery end of May and I just can't heal from it. In so much pain 24/7 😫 Dr's not helping much anymore and I am at the end of my tether!

Thanks I know I have had it for 40 years and I have had the best Dr who’s retired and ugh a new dr well he doesn’t understand what issues are actually going on. I have used steroids, and other drugs and I don’t know how I will be able to get help with new dr I see him 15 minutes and then he looks puzzled when I describe issues and I don’t like that at all . I eat small bit s of food and I don’t eat other people s food anymore and I had fiber lol it laughed at me . I just keep trying to figure it out eat less no fiber! I have nausea and must have something to be able to smell the food allergies to food s are just beyond belief. I eat what I know want make me sick no preservatives plain food! No dairy , very able to stand potatoes with real butter! Breads No! So everything you need to thrive I can’t tolerate cramps and other issues I would rather not dis gust. I don’t eat salad’s I have never been able to tolerate. Your telling me what I have learned on my own! Thanks I just ask for steroids if bleeding and can’t gain weight at 5 ft 9 I weighed 112 lbs and that’s trouble I have did everything and I have finally used most of my own issues and I never eat meat! Thanks I just keep praying for the wisdom to figure it out and I seem to have had a wonderful dr for almost 40 years and now I have one that just doesn’t say much about it and doesn’t have any answers and doesn’t understand what I have at all. I have all these diseases that are not easy to work with and I try to make him understand but he just can’t grasp the situation. Thanks I pray for you all who suffer use your own intuition to help your self and listen to your dr as some of you don’t heal in between flares but you know how food effects you you can see that you are in control of your body and food that upsets you worse face it we don’t Obsorb anything the way we should my allergies are horrible so I just avoid it.Take care.
