Did Dennis Kucinich suffer from Crohn's disease and cure it by eating vegan?
No, sorry. No one is cured no matter what you read. Crohns has no cure. Crohns patients have remissions and these can last for years but once you are diagnosed with Crohns disease you have it forever. A simple blood test can be done on even a patient in full remission and will always show up positive for Crohns. If it were that simple all of us who suffer from Crohns would gladly eat Vegan, it would be a great alternative to not eating at all during a flare up.

Does crohns disease disqualify you from being a fighter pilot?
This very much depends on your military doctor if you are already in the armed forces. Crohns disease can be in remission for years, but can flare at anytime. Depending on the severity of the flare up and when it happens it would not be a good idea to be in the cockpit of an aircraft at the time. You certainly would be grounded during such a flare as the medications used to control a Crohns attack can affect your performance both physically and mentally.

What is frequency of births with crohns disease?
The fertility rates for women with Crohns disease are not much different from those without Crohns. Women with Crohn's disease should also be aware that pregnancy often results in normal gestation and that children are not more likely to have the disease just because mom has it. If a woman with Crohns is in remission at the time of conception, she has no greater risk for a disease flare than a woman who is not pregnant. A woman with active disease at the time of conception has a one-third chance of going into remission, a one-third chance of staying at the same disease activity level, and a one-third chance of getting worse during pregnancy. There is no evidence to suggest that inactive Crohn's disease has any effect on either female or male fertility, or on a woman's ability to carry a pregnancy to term and have a vaginal delivery.
