To Jan Morton and Lactnetters,
         I think it is important is for this case (where the husband has Crohn's disease) to be closely followed and documented, with the client's permission, so that it can be written up and published.  Publication of case studies, with recommendations for future investigators, provides ideas for HCPs doing a lit. search, and - with luck - may interest someone, somewhere, with access to a number of sufferers, in doing a controlled study.  That is, if someone can get the numbers.
