Overview
Common risk factors in the development of crohns disease include white ancestry, age 15-40 or 60-80 years, family history of crohns disease and cigarette smoking.
Risk Factors
Common risk factors in the development of crohns disease include [1][2][3]
- White ancestry
- Age 15-40 or 60-80 years
- Family history of CD
- Cigarette smoking, smokers are three times more likely to get Crohn's disease.
- Diet rich in sugars
- Oral contraceptives
- NSAIDS
- Living in an industrialized country
- Certain chemicals in the diet, known as microparticles, are also hypothesized as a risk factor for the disease, as well as a poor imbalance of omega-6 to healthy omega-3 fatty acids that emerging research shows helps to improve all types of inflammatory disease.
- Gastric cancer is most often caused by the bacterium Helicobacter pylori that flourishes in cramped and unsanitary conditions.
