This is NOT to halt chrohn's disease. This is to reduce side effects from primitive colon-removal surgery to treat Crohn'# symptoms.

That’s not my reading. One of the main symptoms of crohns is inflammation that leads to scarring and then surgery to remove the scarred intestine.

If this stops inflammation/ scarring that’s a big part of it.

Or to put it another way: you get scarring before surgery, too. The problem is that overtime there’s only so much intestine you can remove.
