Summary

This study looks at whether a toxin called deoxynivalenol (DON), found in grains, might be a risk factor for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Researchers will measure DON levels in 100 people—some with Crohn's disease and others without IBD—to see how the body processes it. The goal is to understand if this common food contaminant plays a role in triggering or worsening IBD.
