They really don't know. Browsing the internet will get you hundreds of definitive answers but the truth is, if they knew, they could develop a cure and they can't do that yet.

It used to be thought Crohns was stress related but since many patients are just babies with no stress, they kept searching. Genetics, environmental triggers, virus, bacterial. There are theories about Crohn's disease that suggest it is caused by infections or that there is a specific organism triggers most patients' disease. However, it is believed that while infections may trigger the onset it is likely much more complicated than that. No one has the answer yet.

Since the cause of Crohns disease is unknown at this time there is no prevention. Ongoing studies suggest an abnormal immune response in the intestinal tract, triggered by unknown environmental factors, in persons at risk for the disease due to their genetic makeup. There is no clear evidence that anything in the diet is involved in causing Crohn's disease.
