First-Ever National Study of Dietary Interventions to Treat Crohn's Disease Receives Funding

That's great! I like when there is research into Crohn's that doesn't revolve around suppressing the immune system. Although it looks like the diets will only be 6 weeks long. I wonder if that will be long enough to achieve statistical significance in change of inflammation?
 
Great news! My son was recently diagnosed and we are working with a nutritional therapist to try to heal and seal his gut.

I don't think it is published yet. They started recruiting in March and it is a 12 week study. Results will take a while to compile and a bit for the paper to be written. From what I am hearing from our GI, results are promising.

oops sorry. I got that one confused with the recent one comparing all the diets. I looked on IBD partners and they haven't published any results.
