How to Be Happy & Healthy With IBD: Common Misconceptions About IBD

Myths and misconceptions about IBD are common. Even amongst patients, there's things that take time and education to understand because the things that swirl around in the public consciousness are not always true. To help understand why we can't get rid of some of these common misconceptions, Amber Tresca is joined by gastroenterologist and IBDologist Siobhan Proksell, MD, and ulcerative colitis and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) patient advocate Molly Dunham-Friel, MPH of Better Bellies By Molly.

Concepts discussed on this episode include:

Find Siobhan Proksell, MD on Twitter, and at University of Miami.

Find Molly Dunham-Friel, MPH at Better Bellies By Molly, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, and LinkedIn.

Find Amber J Tresca at AboutIBD.com, Verywell, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and Instagram.
