Why is Crohns disease considered an autoimmune disease? Will antibodies cure Crohns?

Does Crohns affect older people more than younger?

Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Crohn's Disease is not an autoimmune disorder. It is a type of inflammatory bowel disease that strikes different parts of the intestine. It is most common in people who are 20-40 years old.
