We hear many things about how dangerous being acidic is, and many patients ask me if it is true or not. Should I try to be more alkaline they ask? I think the answer to that question is yes and this explains my reasons why! So please read about the dangers of being too acidic and how you can find that balance by changing your diet. You will improve your health as a result of these changes. 8 Benefits of Having a Balanced Body pH:
Did you know that the water fish swim in needs to be the correct pH for them to live? Also, plants flourish when the soil is at the right pH level. Life only exists where there’s a balance, and your body is regulated by pH! Are you too acidic? Check Out This List of Symptoms of Being Too Acidic Digestive issues:
Unhealthy Skin, Nails and Hair:
Teeth and Mouth Issues:
Eyes, Head and General Body:
Nerves and Emotions:
If you are in an overly acidic condition, you can weaken the body, and it can become dangerous. Our body requires a slightly alkaline state to function well. Blood, for example, needs to be 7.4 pH. A shift in blood pH of just 0.2 can result in death. The body does not want to die, and because it is smarter, then we realise it compensates for this. It is forced to borrow minerals (calcium, sodium, potassium and magnesium) from vital organs and bones to neutralise the acid. A condition of high acidity may go undetected for years, causing the body to suffer prolonged damage. So How Do We Balance Our pH?
So your diet needs to be reasonably alkaline – for it to be energising and to get all the benefits mentioned above. Diet is the safest way to balance your acidity. If your diet is not what it should be, you can also add alkaline water.

The problem today is that we don't eat dirt; we wash everything. Of course, given what is in the dirt and on the dirt around us, it’s probably best that we do clean it all. But in the process, we never get a chance to ingest those healthy bacteria that our genes expect us to. In most healthy people this doesn't usually present a problem. As long as there are some healthy gut bacteria present those healthy bacteria can flourish and keep us well. BUT unfortunately, we have Crohn's Disease. So, as long as we don't get too stressed out (stress hormones can kill off healthy flora), too sick (diarrhoea and vomiting are ways the body purges bad bacteria – but it purges good bacteria with them), or take antibiotics (antibiotics tend to kill most bacteria – that’s their job), and as long as we are eating well we are able to keep our healthy bacteria and keep them flourishing. SO ARE WE DOOMED BECAUSE ALL OF THESE THINGS ARE SOMETHING THAT HAPPEN TO US ALL THE TIME? We live in a time when stress is everywhere, where we do tend to get sick and take antibiotics, where we eat certain processed foods that support the growth of unhealthy bacteria and yeast forms while choking out the healthy flora. That is our everyday life. So what can we do? Many people whose diets include daily doses of yoghurt or acidophilus can maintain healthy gut flora, but these sources aren’t always reliable (pasteurising and added sugars can reduce their effectiveness), and not everyone with Crohn's Disease can tolerate dairy that well. For that reason, it’s wise to take probiotic supplements. Mark Sisson thinks we should think of probiotic supplements as friends. "Not those friends you always tell “we should hang out more!” when you run into them but never do. Real friends. The ones you have over for dinner every week. The ones you include in group texts that go for months without breaking. That’s how you should treat probiotics – like real friends whose company you genuinely enjoy and who come in capsules and require refrigeration." He recommends taking probiotics with food or 30 minutes before meals, as our bodies are “meant” to consume probiotics with food. They seem to survive the transit through our gut when taken this way (as opposed to after a meal). I like to take mine 30 minutes before I eat.

Our way of life is ever changing and becoming increasingly stressful. People are reaching for the quick fix of an energy drink or a chocolate bar to get them through the day, to make that meeting or even to have dinner with the relatives. Admit it, who hasn't done this? When you've been up all night in the bathroom but still have to make yourself go to work in the morning, you want something easy, quick and something that works. However, there is one big problem with this approach. Sure you have that drink, and you feel more active, but then what happens after the drink. It is like a roller coaster. You have an increase in energy, but then you have to have the downward part of the ride. So we go up and down throughout the day from one quick fix to the other. The correct approach is to never get your body into a state where you need the quick fix. Ok, stop laughing now. That is, of course, the storybook approach to life but we live in the real world of Crohn's disease where the happy ending approach does not always work. What we need though is a HEALTHY quick fix to give us the extra energy we need but we also want to avoid the crash and burn of an unhealthy choice. MY TOP 10 HEALTHY ENERGY QUICK FIXERS 1. EXPOSE YOURSELF. To the sun, that is! Make sure you take breaks throughout the day to go outside as natural sunlight reduces stress hormones, lowers blood pressure and increases serotonin levels which lifts mood and energy. Also helps you make sure you are not deficient in Vitamin D. So if you know you get tired around 3:30, take a short walk outside or sit in the sun for few minutes every day. 2. DRINK WATER AND WET YOURSELF. Drink more water! (this is the one a lot of us have the most trouble with) Dehydration causes fatigue, and if you don’t drink enough water consistently you can feel sluggish all the time! Don't stop at just drinking it, take a break from your desk and splash cold water on your face: Cool water stimulates circulation and metabolism and definitely wakes you up! 3. SUCK IT IN. Air that is. Learning how to take breaks throughout the day to breathe deeply can help boost energy almost immediately! Start with an intentional practice of breathing every afternoon when you feel most tired, breathe deeply in for 5 counts, hold for 2 counts and out again for 5 counts. Do 5 reps! 4. GET YOUR GROOVE ON. Studies have shown that listening to about an hour of upbeat music that you find stimulating every day, can reduce fatigue and increase dopamine. So put your headphones on, lock the door to your office and dance like no one is watching [and hopefully no one is] 5. GO GREEN. Drink a green juice (for example juiced kale, lettuce, green apple, ginger, lemon and garlic). Or go for a green tea! These are all super healthy foods that immediately increase energy in a “healthy energy drink” way! Anyone of these or all can be great afternoon pick me ups! 6. STAND TALL Simply stand up for more hours of the day. Global studies have found that we generally sit for an average of 7.7 hours a day—this can be very negative for personal health. Just simply standing up every couple hours can increase your energy and overall health. I have recently seen many offices providing standing desk options for employees. 7. FEEL THE GOOD VIBES. Studies show that the more you surround yourself with high energy, positive people, the more you will be able to generate high energy and positivity! Make more choices to spend time with happy, energetic people! 8. MOVE YOUR MOUTH. The act of chewing stimulates brain functioning and chewing on something citrus will give you an immediate boost. 9. MIX IT UP. Snack on a mix of chia seeds, goji berries and dark chocolate—each proven on their own to have high energy-boosting content. 10. SNIFF IT. Many studies have shown that smelling peppermint, cinnamon or something with citrus, such as orange or lemon scents can perk up energy levels. Add a dab of scented oil onto the inside of your wrist as you do your breathing reps!

I believe that drinking water is so important. It is critical for our body to function correctly. We can all agree on that. People who suffer from Crohn’s pose a real risk of becoming dehydrated; you may even want to use electrolyte-replacement beverages as they can help. Also remember to drink enough water before, during, and after activity. Staying ahead of dehydration is critical. Once you actually feel real thirst you are actually dehydrated. It takes 21 days of not feeling thirsty to correct this problem in your body. So to avoid this I recommend that you sip [not skull] plenty of water during the day, I also believe that you should make sure you are drinking water at room temperature or drink the water slightly warm. You can add lemon to it to improve the taste if you desire. To to make sure you are getting enough drink water following this plan: [a] Have a glass of water at your bedside so that you can drink water during the night if you wake up. [b] On rising, drink a glass of warm water with lemon in it. This starts the digestive juices flowing and can also assist in going to the toilet if that is a problem for you. The lemon also adds flavor to enable you to drink the required amount of water. [c] Aim to drink 1 litre of water by lunchtime (sitting the water bottle at your work station and sipping from it continuously will help). [d] Continue to sip on the water after lunch and aim to drink another litre by dinner time. [e] Once you are home, continue to sip water and aim to drink another litre by bedtime. The following are also some reasons as to why you should drink water at a certain time as drinking water at the correct time maximizes its effectiveness on the human body :
So let me know how you go with drinking more water and tell me the benefits you experience.

Today I am sharing something completely different with you. It is a different way of viewing not only the world BUT also this thing we have called Crohn's. No one knows the cause of Crohn's Disease. So, instead let's make up a name for the cause and will call it squawlg. You might think this sounds CRAZY!!!! But for what I'm going to talk about today the cause doesn't matter. However, I do know one thing it is NOT caused by, and that is a lack of medication and surgery because we tried that. So what's next? Imagine if we could go to a parallel universe where
Ok, so that place simply doesn't exist. But you can be useful in this universe.
I jog, I fast, I meditate, I pray, I am thankful, I am a Dad. But I realised I just needed to get good with everything thrown at me. I have been in a coma for months, I have clinically died 3 times and I have searched for teachers. I discovered that "Life is neither happening for us, or it is happening to us, it is just happening. So as Nike says "Just do it." Live your life, learn to "Love your dis-ease", it is teaching you your next steps. I will continue to post happy thoughts because you need to be reminded of that until you don't! The other thing to remember is "Don't make 5-year plans, make 5-minute plans."

It's a fact. No one wants to go under the knife and have surgery. It is a very daunting experience. Then there is the sometimes long recovery period afterwards. I can speak from experience here as I have undergone surgery three times and as a result of complications (an infection in the hospital which left me in Intensive care for a month and stuck in the hospital for four more) have been left with 90 cm of the small bowel. So even though it can be stressful, there are certain things you can do to make not only your lead up to surgery smoother but your recovery a whole lot easier, enabling you to return to health quicker. 6 Ways To Prepare Your Body for Surgery 1. Turmeric There are currently over 7,000 studies researching the efficacy of turmeric and its active (anti-inflammatory) component curcumin. Turmeric is also antibacterial, is a natural pain killer as it reduces inflammation, boosts immunity, aids liver detoxification, aids your body to deal with stress, its antioxidant rich, aids digestion and contains many more health benefits. When you schedule your surgery try drinking a Turmeric shot.
NOTE: You may not be able to continue taking the turmeric leading up to the surgery as you may have to avoid all blood thinners, even natural ones such as turmeric, ginger, garlic and olive leaf. As soon as you get home from surgery, continue to have your daily turmeric shots. Disclaimer: thin blood can be dangerous during surgery since it may not clot properly. It’s important you talk to your doctor or surgeon so you know which medications, supplements and real foods will need to be avoided and for how long. 2. Coconut Oil Pulling Oil pulling is a fantastic oral detoxification practice. You simply swish a few teaspoons of coconut oil in your mouth for 15-20 minutes. I opted to add in a few drops of the highly potent oregano oil for maximum antiseptic and antifungal properties, as oregano oil is also a natural antibiotic and aids in the treatment of infections. 3. Probiotics Like Hippocrates, I truly believe that ‘all disease begins in the gut’ So make sure you do everything you can to prepare your gut and body for the unavoidable antibiotics and drugs. Make yourself some smoothies and add these Probiotics to receive all the benefits. 4. Bone Broth - Gelatin and Collagen All three of these foods provide a bioavailable form of minerals, trace minerals, calcium, magnesium and amino acids which are essential for healing of the digestive tract, hormonal balance, digestion, sleep, liver detox, skin and hair, nails and teeth health. Additionally, the amino acids found in these foods promote probiotic balance and growth. This is how you can use all three foods.
5. Loading up on Greens Making sure you include Supreme Greens into your daily food intake is also extremely beneficial. They provide incredible amounts of nutrition in just one spoonful. They are full of vitamins and minerals, are easily digested, absorbed and utilised. Add them to your smoothies. 6. Stress Management Stress adds so much havoc to your body, as it suppresses the immune system, decreases nutrient absorption, slows down the blood flow to the digestive system and turns off or turns down our body’s healing processes. We know how important stress management is, however sometimes it’s a lot easier said than done and is a constant work in process. However, if stress is not managed, it weakens the immune system over time which doesn’t allow the body to fight off bad bacteria and viruses, resulting in systemic inflammation and leaky gut. So because you need your body to work to the best of its ability so you can have a speedy recovery include these into your daily routine

Today I am going to discuss three more challenges that arise because you are a woman and you have Crohn's Disease. So here they are - 1. Having Crohn’s disease can impact your sex life. Crohn’s disease in women may cause swelling in the genital area and occasionally fistulas can develop. Some can even develop a fear of intercourse because of the pain, and others may avoid sex altogether because of fear that stool will leak. Some women may avoid dating altogether because they're embarrassed by the symptoms which can include gas and frequent trips to the bathroom. 2. Women with Crohn's Disease have Body Image Issues. Women with Crohn’s disease are more likely to report body image dissatisfaction than men with the disease. These body image issues could be related to weight loss or embarrassment over symptoms or surgical scars. 3. Crohn’s Disease in women tends to fluctuate with hormonal levels. Symptoms of Crohn’s disease in men aren’t affected by the rises and falls in hormone levels. Women report more bowel movements and cramping around the time of their period.

Women tend to experience Crohn's Disease and its symptoms in a different way to men. Being a woman with Crohn's Disease can have its own unique concerns. Some of the symptoms that women may experience can include missed periods, fertility issues, pain during sex to name just a few. So if you are female and you have Crohn's Disease then here are 4 Things that you need to be aware of. 1. You may be at a higher risk of anaemia. Anaemia due to blood loss is a condition marked by low levels of iron in the blood. In women with Crohn’s disease, blood loss from menstrual flow decreases iron stores, and then there's the potential bleeding from the illness. What’s more, reduced absorption of iron can also occur when the small intestine is inflamed. Consult your specialist, be tested and supplement if necessary. 2. You may be affected during pregnancy. The reproductive system and your digestion are neighbours so it makes sense that one can affect the other. You may have a slightly higher chance of a miscarriage due to your disease, and you, therefore, should work closely with your obstetrician and your gastro during your pregnancy. If you are taking medications, these will need to be discussed as well. Making sure you maintain your nutritional requirements is also a significant concern as your ability to absorb nutrients can be compromised in Crohn’s disease. You have to eat well during pregnancy because the baby only has access to the nutrients that you absorb. 3. Your symptoms may alter according to your hormone levels. This is straight from an expert in this field. “Women with Crohn’s disease report more bowel movements and cramping around the time of their period,” says Marla Dubinsky, MD, co-director of the Susan and Leonard Feinstein Inflammatory Bowel Disease Clinical Center at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City and president of WeCare, an organization devoted to the advancement of women in the field of inflammatory bowel disease. Symptoms of Crohn’s disease in men aren’t affected by rises and falls in hormone levels, she says. 4. It may cause missed periods and changes in your fertility levels. Missed periods and fertility issues may be due to medications that treat Crohn’s disease, weight loss, hormonal changes, or problems with absorbing nutrients due to your Crohn's Disease. “If you’re in remission from Crohn’s disease at the time of conception, you’ll likely be able to conceive and have an uncomplicated pregnancy and healthy delivery,” says Dr Schnoll-Sussman. However, it's more difficult to become pregnant and have a healthy pregnancy if Crohn’s disease is active. "Discuss your plans with your doctor well in advance of conception to help assure a healthy pregnancy,” Schnoll-Sussman says.

I discussed in my last BLOG Post about how slowing down your chewing can help improve your digestion. Have you tried it yet? My family all eat at this much slower pace, and one definite improvement is we get to spend longer at the dinner table. It's a great time to check in with each other and also find out what's going on in your kids lives (and sometimes your partner as well haha). So as well as having Crohn's Disease your bloating, gas, indigestion, and reflux can all be caused if the stomach is not acidic enough, or if there is not enough stomach acid to break down food. Either of these could be adding to your digestive issues. If you are having digestive problems, you may want to try increasing the acidity of your stomach acid before meals by consuming apple cider vinegar or lemon juice. So how do I do this? Try having the juice of ½ a lemon or 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar in a few tablespoons of water 20 minutes before eating. Trial this for 4 weeks, and see if it makes a difference to your digestion. TIP: Avoid drinking water with your meals as this further dilutes your stomach acid.

Good digestion is the basis of good health as proper digestion enables the nutrients in our food to be available for absorption and use in the body. This is even more important when you have Crohn's Disease. But quite often those that have Crohn's Disease struggle with this absorption. We then exhibit all the signs of poor digestion ranging from bloating, gas, indigestion, constipation or diarrhoea, and reflux. So what should you do? Well, the first step in ensuring that the food you eat is well broken down is to slow down and chew! We all eat in a rush due to stress and our busy lifestyles. We don't pause between bites and we sometimes only chew each mouthful four or five times. The role of the mouth, teeth and tongue is to break down food into small pieces so that when the food gets to the stomach, it is ready to be broken down by the stomach acid. The mouth is super important as it is the only place in which food can be broken down like this, so it is essential to chew slowly and correctly. Large pieces of food are not easily broken down by stomach acid, as the surface area to volume ratio of the food is too small. So slowing down, and chewing each bite 15-20 times are very simple ways to aid your digestion. Try this tip and let me know how you go. NOTE: if you struggle to eat slowly try putting your fork down on your plate between each bite.
