Episode notes
🎙️ The online IBD community has been genuinely transformative; peer support with real, measurable impact on patient outcomes. But the same ecosystem is also full of unproven dietary protocols, supplement grifters, and misinformation that can delay real treatment. In this episode, I celebrate what the community gets right, call out what's broken, and reflect honestly on my own responsibility as someone with a platform in this space.
