⚠️ IBS is more than just a sensitive stomach.
It’s a real medical condition that may be influenced or triggered by:
• Stress
• Diet
• The gut–brain connection
Understanding #IBS is the first step toward better care and better health.

❌ Myth: Food allergies cause IBS
✅ Fact: IBS is not an allergy
❌ Myth: Just relax and it will go away
✅ Fact: IBS is a real, treatable medical condition
Expert evaluation makes a difference.

Poster titled "First in the Nation: Innovations in Heart Health" by Duke, featuring layered colored paper design with a paperclip on the side.
Surgeons at Duke University perform a pioneering heart transplant, the first in the U.S. using a heart from a donor after circulatory death. The image also features an informational text about the significance of this medical achievement.
Promotional image of Duke's next-generation artificial heart implantation, highlighting it as the first in the U.S. conducted at Duke, with a medical professional holding the device, set against an informational backdrop about the device's significance for patients with severe heart failure.
Infographic titled 'World's First Infant Heart Reanimation' featuring an image of a medical professional in a mask working in a surgical environment, an illustration of a detailed human heart, and text about Duke University's 2025 breakthrough in infant heart transplant techniques.
What does a medical “first” really mean?
A baby getting the chance to grow up.
An adult w/ heart failure getting more time w/ family.
Hope, when there were no options.
This is research that saves lives & shapes the future of medicine.
