Autoimmune life and me

As someone living with Crohns and Ankylosing Spondylitis, sometimes life gets tough in the health stakes. Don't even start on the mind chatter. I do my best to live my best life despite the illness and I would love you to be a part of that journey, and see if you can resonate or empathise with my words.

    GLP1 and IBD - will they let you take Mounjaro?

    🎙 Autoimmune Life | Episode Title: GLP-1 Drugs and IBD – What You Need to Know In this episode of Autoimmune Life, we dive into the hot topic of GLP-1 receptor weight loss medications—like Mounjaro, Ozempic and Wegovy—and their implications for people living with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. As someone navigating the autoimmune journey, I break down why these widely discussed drugs may not be suitable—or even prescribed—for those of us with IBD. We explore the science, the risks, and the critical conversations happening between patients and doctors. Whether you’re living with IBD, supporting someone who is, or simply curious about how weight loss medications intersect with chronic illness, this episode offers an honest, informative look at an issue that’s gaining traction in the autoimmune community. 👉 Call to Action Time: 📘 Grab a copy of my book on Amazon—just search for Look an Elephant in the Eye. ⭐ If you enjoyed this episode, please leave a five-star review—it really helps more people find the show. 🎧 Don’t miss my other podcast, A Lusher Life, where I explore travel, nutrition, and thriving with autoimmune conditions. 🔗 Follow along on all the links below for more content, updates, and ways to connect.
