Did you know that August is Short Bowel Syndrome (SBS) Awareness Month?

SBS happens when a person doesn’t have enough small intestine, or it doesn’t work well. This is a rare malabsorption disorder that prevents the body from absorbing enough nutrients like water, protein, calories, fat, and vitamins among others.

SBS can result from surgery to remove a major portion of the small and large intestines, being born with a part of the small intestine missing or having small intestines that don’t work well for other reasons.

Nutritional support is key to ensure the body has the nutrients it needs. Get the facts and support about treating SBS in our Short Bowel Syndrome Resource Center.

This resource is the place to start to learn more about the condition, plus find resources that can support transitions of care for teen to adult care.

Happy Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month from the AGA Gastro Squad! 💙

We’re committed to encouraging CRC screening and protecting access to CRC care during March and year-round – remember, screening saves lives!

If you or a family member is 4️⃣5️⃣ or older, it’s time to schedule CRC screening as a part of routine health maintenance. (If you have family history of CRC or are considered high risk, screening may need to start earlier – consult your doctor for the plan that’s right for you.)

CRC is the third most common cancer among men and women, but there’s good news: early detection leads to easier treatments and higher ⬆️ survival rates.

We can’t ignore colorectal cancer – encourage your family and friends to get screened at the right time and let’s work together to achieve a world free of colorectal cancer. 💪🏽
