Crohn’s disease is an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), the  general name for diseases that cause inflammation in the intestines. Crohn’s  disease can be difficult to diagnose because its symptoms are similar to other  intestinal disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome and to another type of IBD  called ulcerative colitis. Ulcerative colitis causes inflammation and ulcers in  the top layer of the lining of the large intestine.

Crohn’s disease affects men and women equally and seems to run  in some families. About 20 percent of people with Crohn’s disease have a blood  relative with some form of IBD, most often a brother or sister and sometimes a  parent or child.

Dr. Nelson has found there would be the presence of parasite, infections and toxins in the small intestine, causing the swelling of the small intestine.  When food passes through the swollen part of the small intestine it causes pain. By getting rid of the cause, Dr. Nelson’s patients have seen some great reduction in the pain and problems.  This enables them to lead more normal lives.
