Crohn's Disease
Crohn's disease is an inflammatory bowel disease that affects the gastrointestinal tract. It can affect any part of the digestive system, and symptoms can range from mild to severe. In some cases, it can cause serious complications such as malnutrition, ulcers, and bowel obstruction. The exact cause of Crohn's disease is unknown, but it is thought to be caused by a combination of genetic, environmental, and immune system factors. Treatment options vary depending on the severity of the disease but may include lifestyle changes, medications, or surgery. Early diagnosis and effective treatment can help improve quality of life and reduce the risk of serious complications.

Immunity means being protected from something and being unaffected or not bothered by it. There are two main types of immunity: innate, also called natural or inherited, and adaptive. Our immune system protects us and helps fight off disease. Microorganisms, small microscopic organisms, and viruses are everywhere.
