I'm still learning the software here. I know we've had around 30-40 people join so far this month. As far as the Sept/ Oct/ Nov thing, all I can tell you is that I originally joined Long Island in September. <g> We often see a lot of activity from Sept - January because that's when an awful lot of the family-oriented holidays fall, and everyone panics over " What do I tell Aunt Gertrude about her egg-bake which she always serves, and everyone has to eat, or she has a hissy fit? " (Egg bake borrowed from a relative by marriage. I think it's some dreadful variation on bread pudding, only it isn't sweet.) Speaking of new folks, that reminds me to welcome everyone, and invite them to introduce themselves. — Marilyn New Orleans, Louisiana, USA Undiagnosed IBS since 1976, SCD since 2001 Darn Good SCD Cook No Human Children Shadow & Sunny Longhair Dachshund Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 i remember reading years ago on some teens for crohns site that thereis a mystery that many people have flares during sept/oct/nov. Hi Jodi, Elaine recommended taking cod liver oil in the fall and winter months because there is evidence that lack of Vit D can cause IBD and flares. See: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16563470 Vitamin D and its role in multiple sclerosis, and inflammatory bowel disease. Autoimmune diseases like multiple sclerosis (MS) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) occur because of an inappropriate immune-mediated attack against self-tissue. Analyses of genetically identical twins shows that besides genetics there are important environmental factors that contribute to MS and IBD development. Vitamin D availability due to sunshine exposure or diet may play a role in the development of MS and IBD. Compelling data in mice show that vitamin D and signaling through the vitamin D receptor dictate the outcome of experimental MS and IBD. Furthermore, the evidence points to the direct and indirect regulation of T cell development and function by vitamin D. In the absence of vitamin D and signals delivered through the vitamin D receptor, auto reactive T cells develop and in the presence of active vitamin D (1,25(OH)(2)D(3) ) and a functional vitamin D receptor the balance in the T cell response is restored and autoimmunity avoided.
