Resume de l’article : Et si l’origine de la maladie de Crohn se trouvait dans le sol ?

Article: « Quality of soils and Crohn’s disease »

Answer:
There is a potential link between the quality of soils and the risk of developing Crohn’s disease. A French study has shown that people living in areas with poor soil quality, characterized by a lack of certain bacteria and fungi, are more likely to develop this inflammatory bowel disease. The hypothesis is that the lack of exposure to these microorganisms in childhood could lead to an abnormal immune response and increase the risk of Crohn’s disease. However, more research is needed to confirm this association and to understand the underlying mechanisms.
