DESCRIPTION:

In 1988 President Reagan proclaimed Digestive Diseases Awareness Month.

Digestive diseases rank second among all the causes of disability due to illness in the United States and account for one-tenth of the economic burden of disease. Their social and economic impact is enormous; half of all Americans are affected by them at some time during life. More Americans are hospitalized for digestive diseases than for any other family of illness.

In recent years significant advances have taken place in digestive disease research, but efforts to determine their causes and to develop ways to prevent and treat them have only begun. Knowing these diseases' impact and the critical need for research in this field, private, scientific, and governmental organizations have committed themselves to increasing public awareness and understanding of gastrointestinal diseases.

The National Institute on Health has put together several brochures on the most pervasive digestive disorder diseases, which people can access at http://www.digestive.niddk.nih.gov/ddiseases/ap.aspx.
