You can’t always see IBD.

Today, the Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation released a powerful new “Spill Your Guts” PSA—bringing real stories of life with Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis into the spotlight and challenging the stigma that keeps too many people silent.

Rob Nunnery, Sara Levitt, Saxl Rose, and Victoria Tyler share what living with an invisible illness really looks like—and why no one should have to face it alone.

Read more about how the Foundation is helping shape a future where IBD can be detected sooner, stopped from progressing, and ultimately prevented. https://bit.ly/3R6Uv5N

IBD is hard to talk about. But not as hard as living with it every day.

Check back tomorrow. 👀
