The environmental pressures on a modern gut are undoubtedly different from those of our hunter-gatherer ancestors. The microbiomes would reflect this.
What does this mean for us today?
The paleo vs plant-based debate shows this is complex.
More data would help!

We now have clear guidance from JCVI on those patients eligible for a 3rd primary dose of COVID vaccine.
This includes IBD patients on infliximab, adalimumab, ustekinumab, tofacitinib, prednisolone and some on high-dose aza/mp/mtx.

The impact of Crohn's disease and UC on a person's life can be devastating.
With 1 in 125 of the population living with #IBD it is important we realise what they might be going through.
It isn't just physical; here π are just some of the ways IBD affects people.

Meta-analysis of studies of nutrient intake in #InflammatoryBowelDisease #IBD #Crohns #Colitis
Low intake of fibre is strongest and most consistent finding
How can we help people with IBD to increase #fibre intake?

We are developing and testing increasingly targeted therapies for Crohn's disease & ulcerative colitis.
New molecules will hopefully bring increased efficacy with minimal / no safety issues.
Not all will make it to market - some have already failed.
But there is more to come.

Prevention and cure are big words with a big impact.
But are they possible in IBD?
I've mapped out some of the key steps to move us to preventing IBD.
Data are coming ...

What happens when the delicate balance between environment, genes and microbiota is disrupted?
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) can develop
Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis now affect 1 in 125 people in the developed world.
The numbers are going up fast elsewhere.

Multiple environmental factors impact the gut in health and inflammatory bowel disease:
β’ diet
β’ sleep
β’ travel
β’ stress
β’ surgery
β’ hygiene
β’ exercise
β’ smoking
β’ geography
β’ emulsifiers
β’ medications
Important to take a HOLISTIC approach to health and disease.

I've started to think about life for our patients post-pandemic.
We face many challenges but I'm optimistic.
Advances in drug development, genomics, digital health, AI & more.
This is the start of a new series on Innovations in IBD & the story of the innovators.

We asked 1946 patients with Crohn's and UC in remission about fatigue: here's what we found.
40% of patients were fatigued >50% of the time.
Factors associated with fatigue
β’ depression & anxiety
β’ clinical disease activity
β’ female sex and higher BMI
