"Immune sensitization to food, yeast and bacteria in Crohn’s disease" in Alimentary Pharmacology and Therapeutics (2001)
"Evidence in support of the importance of food antigens perpetuating the inflammatory process comes from studies showing that diets whose sole protein source consists of amino acids or simple proteins can induce remission in Crohn’s disease. ...
Laboratory based experimental work has supported the hypothesis that food or bacterial antigens are involved in the pathogenesis of Crohn’s disease. The proliferation of peripheral as well as lamina propria T lymphocytes to bacterial, mycobacterial and fungal antigens has previously been demonstrated."
Do you ever wonder what you really know about Crohn's Disease despite your experience and all the information out there? Do you find yourself unsettled, wondering why the pieces never seem to really fit together? Through simple questions linked to research evidence, this blog is a place where you can think quietly about Crohn's Disease, its cause, nature, and control. Join me in constructing a new view of Crohn's Disease. Your comments are gold.
