Vitamin C status during active and quiescent Crohn’s disease.
Status: Complete
Year: 2020
Funded: $5,000
Grant Type: Grant in Aid
Our preliminary work shows that low blood and low urinary excretion of vitamin C is very common in adults with active Crohn’s disease but that vitamin C status improves with nutritional therapy. Vitamin C status once Crohn’s is in remission and patients are again consuming a normal diet is unknown.
