🎙 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.
