According to studies and surveys performed by the National Institutes of Health, many patients are unhappy with conventional Crohns disease treatment and more than half seek alternatives.
Crohns syndrome and ulcerative colitis are not considered life threatening diseases (less than 1000 deaths are attributed to IBD annually), but they do affect quality of life.
A Chrons disease diet plan may vary from individual to individual and may need to be changed, depending on whether symptoms are present or in remission.
