Crohn's disease
Crohn’s disease is a chronic, autoimmune, inflammatory bowel disease that can affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract. However, it usually affects the intestinal lining. It causes various symptoms, including intermittent bouts of diarrhoea, low-grade fever, lower right abdominal pain, flatulence, malaise, loss of appetite and rectal bleeding.
Supplements such as zinc and L-glutamine support the important gut-immune system relationship by helping prevent the passage of bacteria and toxins across the intestinal wall.
