Help please! is chron's disease a nutrional related disorder?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: While modification of the diet can alter some of the aspects of this GI disease, it appears to be a faulty immune system which is the cause of this disorder. Sufferers should be under the care of a GI specialist to help prevent the more severe consequences of this disease.
