Ep325: Healing Chronic Gut Issues with Dane Johnson of Crohn’s Colitis Lifestyle

In this episode, Tina sits down with Dane Johnson, founder of Crohn’s Colitis Lifestyle, to break down the real differences between IBD and IBS and why confusing the two can keep people stuck. They dive into the emotional weight of chronic digestive symptoms, the fear around food, and what it truly means to “heal your gut.” From popular diets like SCD and AIP to digestive enzymes, peptides, and biohacking tools, they explore what actually helps. More importantly, they zoom out to the often-overlooked foundations: anatomy, digestion, nervous system regulation, mindset, and long-term sustainability. This conversation challenges the idea that food alone is the answer and offers a grounded, empowering perspective for anyone navigating Crohn’s, ulcerative colitis, or chronic gut inflammation. Here’s what you’ll learn: - Why food alone isn’t the full solution for Crohn’s and ulcerative colitis - The lifestyle factors that silently trigger inflammation and most patients ignore - Why your happiness and mindset are not “woo” and how they affect your symptoms - How to create your own IBD food philosophy instead of following strict diets forever - His take on supplements, peptides, exosomes, and who actually needs them. - Why most people waste money before fixing foundational habits - His go-to “Digestion-Friendly Salad” and why it works for sensitive guts - One mistake almost everyone with IBD makes when trying to heal their digestion Connect with Tina Haupert: https://carrotsncake.com/ Facebook: Carrots 'N' Cake https://www.facebook.com/carrotsncake Instagram: @carrotsncake https://www.instagram.com/carrotsncake YouTube: Tina Haupert https://www.youtube.com/user/carrotsncake About Tina Haupert: Tina Haupert is the owner of Carrots ‘N’ Cake as well as a Certified Nutrition Coach and Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDN-P).
