Quite interesting. However, I hate it when newspapers and such use IBD and IBS interchangeably, as if they are the same. Clearly, the study was about IBD, and now people are going to think that this gene defect is going to have something to do with irritable bowel syndrome. Just a pet peeve I guess.

To me it is very interesting how they keep finding links to the microflora/fauna in the gut as being related to so many diseases. The evidence is much more solid than any food related connections. Still, bottom line, there is the genetic defect that lays the groundwork for susceptibility, even in regard to the course of the disease.

Thanks Josh!
