If you're reading this, you likely want to know if you have a chance of getting cystic fibrosis (CF).

If so, you're not the only one. The lungs and digestive system are both impacted by the fatal, progressing genetic condition known as cystic fibrosis (CF).

It affects roughly 30,000 people in the United States and is the most prevalent genetic disease that is fatal.

A CFTR gene mutation is the root cause of CF. A protein called CFTR aids in the movement of carbon dioxide and oxygen through the respiratory and digestive systems of the body.

The lungs and digestive system cannot operate normally without CFTR.

All ages are affected by CF, but children are the most frequently affected.

People of European heritage are also more likely to experience it.

Although there is no known cure for CF, there are medicines that can help with symptom management.

Antibiotics are typically used as the first line of treatment to eradicate disease-causing germs.

The patient is then given medication to aid in bettering their digestion and respiration.

Surgery is necessary for some patients to treat lung or digestive system issues.

There is no one method to stop CF. But it's crucial to be secure. Stay away from smoking, smog, and passive smoking. Exercise frequently. Additionally, stay away from foods that are high in cholesterol and saturated fats.

Consult your doctor if you're unsure if you're at risk for CF.

He or she can perform a gene mutation test and offer you the finest preventative counseling.
