It is characterized by inflammation, which can lead to a range of symptoms, including abdominal pain, diarrhea, fatigue, weight loss, and complications outside the digestive tract.
WHAT CAN CAUSE CROHN'S?
The exact cause of Crohn’s Disease is still unknown, but it is believed to involve a combination of genetic, environmental, and immune system factors. Certain lifestyle and dietary factors may also contribute to the development and exacerbation of Crohn’s symptoms.
