MrBeast has Crohn’s disease

Stories of celebrities who found success while fighting the challenges of a disability or disease have become common. Many YouTubers have discussed their ADD or depression, but not all problems that plague celebrities are psychological. It’s surprisingly common to find celebrities with a physical disease that can leave them in severe pain if left unchecked. MrBeast is one of these people.

MrBeast suffers from Crohn’s disease. For those who have never heard of it, Crohn’s is an inflammatory bowel disease that can cause a host of digestive issues.

While MrBeast can mitigate the stomach pain with a heavily regulated and unfortunately repetitive diet, he can’t do much about the fatigue. But, MrBeast also has to deal with the mental aspect of Crohn’s as it negatively impacts his socializing — whenever his friends go out to eat, he has to pack his own food if he wants to prevent a severe stomach ache. While his friends get to dine on fine pizzas and chow mein, he has to make do with homemade PB&J.

Moreover, as most people with the disease will tell you, dealing with Crohn’s isn’t as simple as making sure you don’t eat anything that upsets your stomach. Like many people with this condition, MrBeast needs to regularly take Remicade, which requires a four-hour stay at a hospital every five weeks.
