Wash U in collaboration with UNMC, Mayo Clinic, Cedars Sinai and SAIA / IBDesis is conducting a survey to better understand patient experiences with weight management and metabolic health in IBD. Please take the following survey: wustl.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/…. This survey is available across the globe for our patients who would like to have a voice on the topic! And always know that your lived experiences will guide future research, education, and discussion on the cutting-edge topic of #obesity & #IBD. If interested in participating in a PPI Day to further this research, please email @jalpa_devi and join us on Friday, June 5th from 11am to 1pm CDT. Thank you very much! #SAIA #IBDesis #CultureAndGI

As gastroenterologists, we need to move past the outdated idea that IBD is only a disease of undernutrition. 📊 The evidence is clear: Obesity increases the risk of Crohn’s disease It is associated with more active disease and poorer outcomes It may reduce response to therapy And it increases surgical risk Visceral fat—especially mesenteric fat—is biologically active and can fuel intestinal inflammation. This has real implications for how we counsel patients, dose therapies, and design multidisciplinary care models. 💡 Obesity in IBD is not a failure—it’s a modifiable risk factor and an opportunity to improve outcomes.
