  • 𝗨𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗜𝗕𝗗: 𝗕𝗿𝗶𝗱𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗞𝗻𝗼𝘄𝗹𝗲𝗱𝗴𝗲 𝗧𝗼𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘀 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 – 𝟏𝟒𝘁𝗵 𝗘𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is the name for a group of chronic conditions that affect the digestive tract. While there is no guaranteed way to prevent the development of IBD, there are some steps you can take to reduce your risk. Here are some tips: 🚭 𝐀𝐯𝐨𝐢𝐝 𝐭𝐨𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐜𝐨: Smoking has been linked to an increased risk of developing Crohn's disease, so avoiding tobacco is one way to reduce your risk. 🥗 𝐄𝐚𝐭 𝐚 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡𝐲 𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐭: A healthy diet that includes plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains can help reduce inflammation and support digestive health. 🏃♀️ 𝐄𝐱𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐲: Regular exercise has been linked to a reduced risk of IBD, possibly due to its anti-inflammatory effects. While these steps may not eliminate your risk of developing IBD, they can help support overall health and reduce the likelihood of developing other digestive conditions. As always, be sure to talk to your healthcare provider about any concerns you may have. 📚 The "Understanding IBD: Bridging Knowledge Towards Disease Prediction and Prevention" is an initiative led by the GlycanTrigger EU Project. It is dedicated to providing comprehensive, accurate, and easily understandable information about #IBD, #lifestylemanagement, and #patientempowerment. 👩🏻⚕️👨🏽⚕️ Let's bridge the gap between knowledge and well-being! 💪 #GlycanTrigger #Glycans #glycotime #IBD #Crohnsdisease #UlcerativeColitis #PatientEmpowerment #HorizonEurope

  • 🚨 Missed the 1st GlycanTrigger Patients Symposium yesterday? 🎥 You can watch the full event on Youtube: https://lnkd.in/g3GVACCh Catch inspiring stories, expert insights, and engaging discussions! 💡

    📣 Yesterday, at the first GlycanTrigger Patients Symposium, we explored research showing that IBD can often be predicted years before diagnosis. This raises vital questions about understanding the sequence of events leading to the disease. By better framing the different stages of risk, we can work toward tailored preventive strategies—ones that could truly modify the disease course and outcomes.  Imagine the impact of detecting IBD early, or even preventing it altogether! 🙌 Maria Cândida Cruz, Vice President of APDI - Associação Portuguesa da Doença Inflamatória do Intestino, Filipa Cunha, APDI board and EFCCA Youth Group, as well as Olivera Culibrk (Serbia) and Alexandra Roventa (Romania) shared personal and insightful perspectives on how an IBD diagnosis has impacted their lives and highlighted the importance of empowering people with IBD to navigate their journeys. Many other speakers provided great input and with around 50 patients and patient representatives in attendance, the symposium offered fascinating insights and plenty of food for thought. Collaborative efforts across research and healthcare are more crucial than ever to turn this knowledge into action. Let’s work together to shape a future where prevention is possible. 💡 💻 Watch the full symposium here: https://lnkd.in/g3GVACCh
