Crohns Disease Symptoms

Crohns Disease symptoms are diarrhea, periodic cramping, lower right abdominal pain, fever, malabsorption, possible anemia and loss of energy, appetite and weight, which are caused by inflammation in the digestive tract (usually the small intestine).

There are different theories about what causes Crohns Disease symptoms, but many doctors believe that the immune system reacts to a virus or a bacterium, causing chronic inflammation in the intestine. Crohns Disease tends to run in families.

Typically, the onset of Crohns Disease begins around the age of twenty. Attacks can occur every few months to every few years. In some cases it may appear several times and leave without returning. If left untreated, Crohns Disease can become serious, causing bowel function to deteriorate and increasing the risk of cancer.

Because the disease affects the small intestine where nutrients from food are absorbed, malabsorption can cause the immune system to weaken which can prolong recovery time. Because Crohns disease pain is in the same general area as appendicitis, it is sometimes misdiagnsosed as such.

White fish from pure, unpolluted water is a good protein source. Since protein is essential in healing the intestine, a free form amino acid supplement will also be very helpful.

Avoid spicy foods, greasy fried food, dairy products, pepper, tobacco, alcohol, caffeine, animal products and meat.

Make an effort to reduce the stress in your life. Meditation, tai chi, chi gong or yoga (gentle forms) are some options for stress reduction.
