In this podcast interview, JoAnne Pavin dives deep into J India's transformative journey through the challenges of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), mold toxicity, and emotional trauma.
šļø Introduction to Jay India and IBDĀ
J India, the host of the #1 IBD podcast on Apple and Spotify, shares how her symptoms began in 2016, leading to a diagnosis of Ulcerative Colitis (UC) through a colonoscopy. Despite worsening symptoms and conventional medical advice, J opted for a holistic, integrative approach to healing, which eventually led her to identify mold toxicity as a root cause.
š„ Medical Approach and Alternative HealingĀ
Rejecting the standard pharmaceutical path, J embraced a mind-body-soul approach. She spotlighted the importance of addressing the underlying causes of her symptoms and discovered the role of Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS) and mold toxicity in her condition.
š§¬ Genetic Factors and Root CausesĀ
We discuss the HLA gene, present in 25-40% of the population, which played a critical role in Jās susceptibility to mold toxicity. The conversation emphasizes the necessity of individualized treatment and the Shoemaker protocol's efficacy in addressing mold exposure.
š¬ Testing and TreatmentĀ
J highlights essential testing and treatment methods, such as the ERMI test for home mold detection, the VCS vision test for mold exposure, and the use of Cholestyramine for detoxification. SHe underscores the importance of professional guidance in detoxification to avoid potential pitfalls.
š§ Emotional Trauma and HealingĀ
The discussion turns to the profound impact of emotional trauma, particularly childhood sexual abuse, on Jās health. Recognizing emotional trauma as a co-factor with mold toxicity, J stresses the ongoing, holistic process of healing and the need for professional support.
š½ļø Diet and Lifestyle ChangesĀ
J Ā shares her current diet, which includes a wider variety of foods while maintaining an anti-inflammatory focus. She talks about the benefits of water fasting and the philosophy of "progress over perfection" in her healing journey.
