Modifiable lifestyle factors in early life and inflammatory bowel disease risk in two birth cohorts.
Journal of Crohn's & colitis

Modifiable lifestyle factors in early life and inflammatory bowel disease risk in two birth cohorts.

The study suggests that modifiable early-life factors (feeding, antibiotic exposure, activity, BMI, smoke exposure, delivery mode, diet) may influence the later risk of IBD, especially Crohn's disease, which could be...
