What is Crohn’s? Crohn’s disease is a disease that causes swelling, or inflammation, and irritation of any part of the digestive tract. Swelling can cause pain and can make the intestine/bowel empty frequently resulting in diarrhea. Inflammation may produce scar tissue that builds up and cause stricture. A stricture is a narrowed passageway that slows movement of food, causing pain or cramps.

Who gets Crohn’s? It most commonly affects men and women between the ages of 13 and 30. Men and women who smoke are more likely to get Crohn’s than a nonsmoker. It seems to run in the family. People with Crohn’s may have a biological relative with some form of IBD. People of the Jewish heritage have an increased risk of getting Crohn’s, and African Americans have a decreased risk.

What causes Crohn’s? The causes of Crohn’s disease is unknown, but researchers believe it is the result of an abnormal reaction by the body’s immune system. Researchers have found that high levels of protein produced by the immune system, called tumor necrosis factor (TNF), are present in the people with Crohn’s disease. However, they are not sure if TNF is a cause or result of Crohn’s disease.

What are Symptoms of Crohn’s? Abdominal pain often in the lower right area Diarrhea Rectal bleeding Weight loss Fevers Bleeding may lead to anemia The range and severity of symptoms varies.

How is Crohn’s Diagnosed? Blood tests Stool tests Flexible sigmoidoscopy and colonoscopy Computerized tomography (CT) scan Upper GI series Lower GI series

What are the Complications of Crohn’s? Intestinal blockage Ulcers Fistulas Restless leg syndrome Anemia Arthritis Skin problems Kidney stones Gallstones

What are Treatments for Crohn’s? Treatment may include medications, surgery, or nutrition supplementation. Medications: anti-inflammation medications, cortisone or steroids, immune system suppressors, biological therapies (use natural body’s immune system to heal itself), antibiotics, anti-diarrheal medications, and fluid replacements. Surgery: proctocolectomy, ileostomy, intestinal resection surgery.

Exercise with Crohn’s Improves overall health Faster surgery recovery Rebuilds weakened muscles Prevents calcium/ Protein loss Increase stamina Prevent blood clots Increase flexibility Stimulate endorphins Controls stress Prevent feelings of depression

Meals Dinner- Grilled Turkey Breast Lunch- Butternut Squash Soup Breakfast- Whole grain cereal         Lactose free milk Snack- Celery Desert- Raspberry Ring

How does Crohn’s affect your diet? Well, first off from our online sources we have learned that basically it comes down to the persons own needs. The food that they can ingest is different for each and every individual. Certain things you can’t eat are popcorn, nuts, or any dairy products (if lactose intolerant) Foods you liked before might activate the affects of Crohn’s and create havoc in your digestive tract.

Technology and Crohn’s According to our friend (Elliott Stock) technology helps because he can talk to other people with Crohn’s over the internet. This helps to subdue a possible depression that can be caused by the diagnosis of this disease.
