Could your fatigue, bloating, or random skin rashes be more than “just stress” or IBS? You might be shocked to learn they could actually be signs of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or even colon cancer — yes, it's possible without having obvious digestive symptoms.It's unfortunately common to discover that you have Crohn's or ulcerative colitis in your 60s, and not because of gut issues… but during a routine colonoscopy screening. Others are misdiagnosed for years while battling brain fog, thyroid problems, skin issues like psoriasis, vitiligo, eczema, or even unexplained anemia — all while the real problem quietly worsens.I'm joined by Dr. Ilana Gurevich, a naturopathic gastroenterologist who specializes in complex GI disorders. We dive into the hidden signs of IBD, how it differs from IBS, sneaky signs of colon cancer (especially with skyrocketing rates), and the TRUTH about colonoscopies – why you should absolutely stop putting it off and never use a stool test for gut health as a replacement.If you've been brushed off, gaslit, or still searching for answers, you don't want to miss this.⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- See all the references
This week we chat with Ali Feller, podcaster extraordinaire as host of the "Ali On The Run" podcast show. Ali doesn't just talk with elite marathon and track stars. She also, somehow, hunts down running guests like Chelsea Clinton and Ellie Kemper of "The Office" TV show.Did Harry Styles just run the Berlin Marathon in under 3 hours? Yes, and Ali has already published a pod with the Canadian woman who paced him for the first 10 miles. (And she hints that she could actually get through to Styles himself soon.)What's your favorite food? Your favorite movie? The most fun you've had in the last week? These and other spontaneous questions make up a big part of each Ali-Feller interview. No one's exactly sure of where the conversation is headed, which is a damn good reason to keep listening.But life is not ha-ha all the time, particularly not Feller's. Her own battles with Crohn's Disease and breast cancer have presented plenty of challenges, but somehow she keeps putting one foot in front of the other. In fact, she's making numerous appearances this fall at the Chicago and NYC Marathons, while continuing to churn out several new podcasts per week. We asked where she gets her endurance. Answer: She considers herself "delusionally optimistic" about life, motherhood, running, and her podcast career.We and all her friends and listeners are rooting hard for her.You can learn more about Ali Feller on her website or Instagram page.

Episode 25:41 The (Natural) Autoimmune Solution It is estimated that nearly 50 million Americans suffer with an autoimmune disorder. Conditions such as Hashimoto's, Crohn's, Ulcerative Colitis, Multiple Sclerosis, Type 1 Diabetes, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Psoriasis and Vitiligo. The cause, according to the medical profession, is unknown. I don't believe that. The treatment, according to the medical profession, focuses on drugs. Drugs such as Immunosuppressants, Anti-Inflammatories, Corticosteroids, and Pain killers. I don't agree with that. The mechanism of action is that the Immune System starts attacking healthy cells. I don't think that's correct. So, what do I think? THAT is what this episode is all about. The cause, treatment and mechanism of action regarding autoimmune disorders. It's an episode that will certainly ruffle some feathers while also shedding some light on an interesting subject. Be sure to give it a good listen… especially if you, or someone you know, suffers with an autoimmune disorder. And, as always, please share it with a friend. Thanks! ———————- Want to learn more?

Send us a textImagine being able to turn down the volume on gut pain, food fear, and medical anxiety—without white-knuckle coping or guesswork. We sit down with Dr. Ali Navidi, co-founder of GIpsychology.com and past president of the Northern Virginia Society of Clinical Hypnosis, to unpack how clinical hypnosis and gut-focused CBT help people with inflammatory bowel disease interrupt the gut-brain loop that keeps symptoms alive. No stage tricks here—just practical tools that retrain the nervous system, reduce visceral hypersensitivity, and restore a sense of control.We explore the real differences between stage and clinical hypnosis and why trance is a natural state you already know how to access. Dr. Navidi explains how anchors—a simple conditioned cue—can trigger a calming response within seconds, whether you're prepping for a colonoscopy, calling the insurance company, or navigating an unexpected flare. We dig into disorders of gut-brain interaction (DGBIs) that can drive symptoms even when labs look great, and why gut-focused CBT plus hypnosis outperforms one-size-fits-all mental health approaches for persistent GI distress.Trauma and nocebo effects show up in subtle ways across the IBD journey. We get candid about medical trauma, memory reconsolidation, EMDR as a hypnotic protocol, and how conditioned food sensitivities form—like the “pizza panic” that lingers long after a flare. You'll hear how to calm hypervigilance, rebuild trust with your body, and reintroduce foods safely. We also share details on a new eight-week telehealth group, created with the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation and the American College of Gastroenterology, that pairs weekly skills training with recorded hypnosis sessions for daily practice.Ready to try tools that actually change how your system reacts?

In this captivating episode of Reading with Your Kids, two remarkable authors share deeply personal stories that transform challenging experiences into inspiring children's literature. David Soren, known for his animation work, introduces "INVISIBLE: The (Sort Of) True Story of Me & My Hidden Disease," a middle-grade novel that brilliantly explores living with Crohn's disease. By personifying his chronic illness as a character named Norm, Soren creates a humorous and heartfelt narrative that helps children understand invisible health challenges. His book offers a window into the experiences of kids managing complex medical conditions while maintaining their sense of imagination and hope. Simultaneously, Christine Alemshah brings cultural richness to children's literature with "Bea's Balikbayan Box of Treasures" Inspired by her Filipino heritage, Shaw explores the beautiful tradition of balikbayan boxes - care packages sent by families across oceans. Her story celebrates childhood imagination, family connections, and the universal joy of cardboard box adventures. Both authors emphasize the importance of representation in children's literature. They believe books should serve as mirrors where children see themselves and windows that allow readers to understand different experiences. Their work challenges traditional storytelling by introducing diverse characters and nuanced narratives that go beyond stereotypical representations. The episode also touches on broader themes of creativity, resilience, and the power of personal storytelling.

Bill Snyder, CEO and Founder of Cylinder, is addressing the high prevalence of digestive health issues using a virtual care model to provide access to a coordinated care team, including dieticians and health coaches, to offer personalized care plans. GI conditions are complex and involve a combination of genetic predisposition, environmental factors, and dietary influences. There are strong correlations between the gut and brain, as well as digestive health and various physical and mental conditions. Cylinder fills a gap in traditional GI care, where physicians often lack extensive nutritional training. Bill explains, "First and foremost, we think about the patients that we serve, and the patients that we serve come to us from across the country. We serve patients in every state across the US, and they suffer from a variety of GI-related conditions. That's things like ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, irritable bowel syndrome, and GERD. It's also a large population who don't have a formal diagnosis, but are symptomatic of GI conditions. So they may have chronic bloating, chronic constipation, and chronic heartburn, and they may not know what the underlying cause is. And then we also reach those members through our clients, which are large self-funded organizations and health plans. People traditionally gain access to Cylinder as part of their employee benefits package." "But there's also a lot that we continue to understand in terms of our overall digestive health system connection. The gut-brain axis, which serves as a bilateral feedback loop between the gut and the brain, is where we found that your digestive health often correlates with your mental health, and vice versa. So we know that some of the reasons for the onset of these conditions can be genetic, but to your point, we're also seeing a lot of impact from our environment and certainly from the foods we eat. And so as you think about the American diet, and as you think about how that's changed over the past several decades, we're seeing an increase in the incidence of these conditions and an increase in people who are presenting with these symptoms and not really sure where to go or what to do." #CylinderHealth #GIhealth #digestivehealth #cylinderhealth #GIcare #virtualhealth #employeebenefits cylinderhealth.com Listen to the podcast here

People with dementia who develop inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) show faster deterioration in thinking, memory, and reasoning skills A large-scale analysis of 7.9 million participants revealed IBD patients face significantly elevated dementia risk, with Crohn's disease showing stronger association than ulcerative colitis IBD triggers systemic inflammation, releasing cytokines that breach the blood-brain barrier, disrupting neural communication and contributing to progressive neurodegeneration over time IBD creates gut dysbiosis, producing neurotoxic metabolites, and increasing intestinal permeability, allowing harmful substances to reach the brain through bloodstream circulation Supporting cellular health through vegetable oil elimination, proper carbohydrates, targeted probiotics, vitamin D optimization, and natural antimicrobials can address IBD's root causes

Send us a textComedian Ian Goldstein takes us through his journey with Crohn's disease, beginning with his diagnosis at 16 when he was just trying to navigate the already challenging world of high school, SATs, and planning for college. With candid humor, he recounts the moment he realized something was seriously wrong – not just from frequent bathroom trips, but when a coworker pointed out his dramatic weight loss.What follows is a rollercoaster of medical experiences that many in the IBD community will recognize – from the shock of needing a colonoscopy as a teenager to the trial and error of finding effective medications. Ian vividly describes his first major bowel obstruction during his senior year of college, complete with what he calls the "modern-day torture device" known as an NG tube. Despite his best efforts to manage his condition through diet alone, he eventually required surgery in 2022 to remove seven strictures from his small intestine.The conversation takes a fascinating turn when Ian shares how he's transformed his medical journey into comedy shows. From "The Autoimmune Saloon" to a celebration party for meeting his healthcare deductible (complete with custom cupcakes and hats), he's found ways to create community while addressing serious issues like medical debt. These creative outlets not only helped him process his experiences but connected him with others who could offer crucial advice about doctors and treatments.Perhaps most valuable are Ian's insights about navigating the healthcare system with a chronic illness. He speaks honestly about the frustration of insurance denials, the anxiety of unexpected medical bills, and the challenges of having an invisible disability. His experiences highlight the importance of self-advocacy, finding the right medical team, and building a supportive community.Ready to laugh, cry, and feel a little less alone in your IBD journey? Listen as Ian shares his practical wisdom: record your doctor appointments to remember important information, and seek out community connections that might literally change your life. Whether you're newly diagnosed or a veteran of chronic illness, this conversation reminds us all that finding humor in dark places might be our most powerful medicine.Links: Ian's websiteNew York Times article about Ian's party to celebrate meeting his healthcare deductibleThe Squeaky Wheel- satire publication that focuses on the experiences of people living with disabilities.

Most people with gut issues get fed the same script: It's genetic. It's lifelong. The best you can do is try to manage the symptoms. But in this episode, holistic nutritionist and physician consultant Josh Dech pushes back on that conventional wisdom, arguing that what we typically call “autoimmune” disease is often a sign of the body protecting itself from toxins lodged in tissue – not a genetic defect that leads the body to attack itself. After working with hundreds of Crohn's, colitis and severe IBS cases, his core message is refreshingly simple: we get sick for three reasons – toxins, microbes, and deficiencies — and our health returns to its natural baseline when we address those in the right order. If you've been told your gut issues are incurable, or if you're stuck swinging between flareups and endless prescriptions, this conversation will give you a framework for finally addressing the root causes of the problem. Notably, Dech explains why drainage should come before detox, what to do if money is tight, and where hope fits in when your “normal” keeps getting worse. Tune in, take notes, and start with a few levers you can actually pull this week — fresh air and a walk, better water, real food and sleep.

Best-selling author Samantha Irby specializes in wringing comedy out of her own personal tragedies. Among her favorite topics: poop (she's got Crohn's disease), depression (which she also has), and sex. Throughout her writing, food is a recurring character. You can often gauge where she's at in life by what she's eating at the time. This week she takes us from the Oatmeal Creme Pies that got her through a troubled childhood, to an unforgettable moment with a glazed doughnut when she was in her 20s, to the fights she now has with her wife over condiments. And we ask her: What do you do when the same foods that bring you emotional comfort make you sick?This episode originally aired on May 10, 2020, and was produced by Dan Pashman, Emma Morgenstern, Andres O'Hara, and Julia Shu, edited by Tracey Samuelson, and mixed by Jared O'Connell.
