401: With Skyrocketing Rates of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), Colorectal Cancer… Is A Colonoscopy Screening BAD For Your Gut? w/ Dr. Ilana Gurevich

from The Healthy Skin Show · host Jennifer Fugo, MS, CNS, Clinical Nutritionist

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 👉 http://www.skinterrupt.com/401 - Join me in the conversation at http://instagram.com/jenniferfugo - Stop My Rashes Root Cause Quiz - www.skinterrupt.com/stopmyrashes-pod - Fix your skin using Jennifer’s method (trusted by 900+ skin rash warriors)!
