WANP Speaker Highlight! “Understanding Post Infectious IBS” Post-Infectious IBS (PI-IBS) is a global phenomenon, and not unique to any ethnic group or environment. The incidence or prevalence of Post-Infectious IBS ranges from 5% to 32% in our global communities with up to 10% of all cases of infectious gastroenteritis resulting in Post-Infectious IBS. Some communities such as Military Veterans may experience up to a 6 fold greater risk of developing Post-Infectious IBS. In my talk, I will look at PI-IBS statistics, etiologies and risk factors and will also discuss testing and treatment strategies to help primary care and GI focused clinicians help these patients with PI-IBS to recover on a deeper level.

Diet is unequivocally a causative factor in the development of cancer, and recurrence. According to the American Cancer Association up to 30 to 35% of cancers are diet related.
Nutritional status is also responsible for morbidity and/or mortality during treatment. It is estimated that 67% of patients are malnourished at diagnosis. Patients are at particularly high risk for developing further malnutrition due to both the disease and the treatment. Response to chemotherapy decreases, increased chemotherapy related toxicity and complications result, and survival times are shortened.
