What Is High Carb Health?

High Carb Health is a coaching organization helping people across the UK living with Crohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis take control of their symptoms through a whole-food, plant-based approach.

We specialize in personalized IBD nutrition coaching, building a Crohn’s disease diet plan or Ulcerative Colitis diet plan tailored to your life, not generic advice from a leaflet.

High Carb Health was founded by Shukul and Shamiz Kachwalla, after Shamiz was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis and took control of his own health through a plant-based diet.

We believe in addressing the root cause of inflammation, not just managing symptoms with medication alone, while always working alongside your GP or IBD team, not around them.

1-on-1 coaching, self-paced online programs, personalized diet plans, and ongoing community support.

Is it medical treatment or nutrition/lifestyle coaching?
High Carb Health provides nutrition and lifestyle coaching, not medical treatment, and we are not affiliated with or a substitute for NHS care. We work alongside your GP or gastroenterologist, never as a replacement for their care.

What makes its approach different?
Our coaches have personally taken control of IBD themselves; this is lived experience, backed by over a decade of client results, not theory from a textbook.

Success Stories

Hey, Sibel here! I write this was so much excitement, as I had been visualising the day that I would be able to leave my “life after colitis” story! And here I am 🙂 After ending up in A+E in August 2020 and going through tests, I was diagnosed with UC. Doctors were telling me I had inflammation through the roof and had a ‘very’ sick colon. I had been living a super high-stress lifestyle, not taking care of myself mentally or physically, eating junk food for most of my life and experiencing anxiety attacks. From the offset, I decided I wanted to take the natural route and found High Carb Health online. I knew very clearly that I wanted to live a full life where I wasn’t held back by UC or on multiple medications with horrible side effects for the rest of my life. After watching a few testimonials, I realised that these guys were the real deal, so I reached out and joined the programme pretty much straight away – this was the best decision I have ever made! I committed to seeing the process through – Of course, there were many ups and downs, but I had amazing weekly support and reassurance from Shukul throughout the entire process! Just under a year later, I became free of all symptoms and now live a life free of UC! I am just another story in the countless people who have reversed their condition – If it has been possible for myself and others, it’s possible for you too!

My name is Helene and I was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis on July 7, 2018. Following my diagnosis, I was placed on various medications. After my prescribed medication regimen failed I was told I would need to be placed on Humira. I knew that was not going to happen so I left my doctor’s office in search of a better way. I researched for a couple of weeks and found a book by Dr. David Klein. I read the book from beginning to end and attempted to execute self healing, but failed. Frustrated, but determined I continued my research which led me to High Carb Health via YouTube. After watching multiple videos and reviewing the website, I decided to sign up for the 6 month program. During the process, I was given extraordinary support and attention which left me with a sense of security even when I was overwhelmed with doubt. I cannot express enough my gratitude for the level of commitment, dedication, and attention I was provided by High Carb Health during my healing journey. I AM now symptom and medication free. I enjoy eating all of the food this beautiful earth has to offer through a whole food, plant based, no animal product lifestyle and I feel AMAZING!

IBS/Constipation healed through whole food plant based diet What was your life like before you joined us and did you try any other treatment or plan? My life was terrible, I have had constipation since 2005. Every morning I have a great struggle to clear my bowels. It’s been a terrible journey so far. I tried allopathy, homeopathy, Ayurveda, naturopathy, yoga. How did you find out about us? I got to know you guys primarily from SHARAN. I attended live programs at Pune, India by Shukul. The theory and the concepts explained in the talk were scientific and logical. What was the program like? It’s fantastic. There is the amazing support from both of You guys. Though the beginning of the program is not easy. Especially the detoxification process. And you guys keep on giving positive hopes and that really keeps me going. Some of the concepts seem weird but explanation and detail understanding provided makes things look easy. How is your life now after the guidance? My constipation is reduced. I am feeling much more energetic. My bowels are responding very well. Many medicines and pills are stopped. What advice would you give to others? Anyone having any issue with the digestive issues trust these guys. They know what they are doing. Plus the most important aspect they educate us in future you have any issues you know what to do.

Ulcerative Colitis and the Healing Power of a Vegan Diet

For people with Ulcerative Colitis- a chronic inflammatory bowel disease, finding the right diet plan is a tiring task. A suit-all ulcerative colitis healing diet is still a Bermuda triangle. They eat by trial & error, cutting and limiting certain food which might be aggravating the symptoms. The current scientific evidence points to a plant-based diet as the best option to help with Ulcerative Colitis symptoms.

11 Things You should Avoid telling to Someone With Crohn’s Disease or Ulcerative Colitis

Every day is a challenge when you live with Crohn’s disease, Ulcerative Colitis, or any other inflammatory bowel disease. These diseases cause embarrassing symptoms like frequent diarrhea, bleeding, and fatigue. At a certain point when the condition worsens, the patients start losing weight during a flare-up and suddenly gain it all back. An immense attack on the digestive tract can be the cause and it results in severe abdominal pain and chronic bloody diarrhea.

Online Nutritionists for Improved Health

You are what you eat This is an old saying which reflects on the importance of nutrition very well. With fast paced lives and the abundance of information AND misinformation on the internet, it's very difficult to distinguish wrong from right.
