Every few months , a new TikTok about digestive problems goes viral.
Experts say it’s not clear whether there is an uptick in the number of people having digestive problems or if the online conversation is leading to more appointments and diagnoses.
Doctors are seeing a pattern of more and younger people wanting to deal with their gastrointestinal distress, and they suspect anxiety related to increased isolation during the pandemic.
Bell, who has a master's of public health in nutrition, fills a specific gap on social media.
“I felt like there weren’t a lot of people who looked like me doing that type of content,” she said.
Bell sees her role as helping women of color figure out how to start having these uncomfortable conversations about their gut health.
