Cystic Fibrosis is an inherited chronic disease that affects the lungs and digestive system of about 30,000 children and young adults in the United States (70,000 worldwide). A defective gene and its protein product cause the body to produce unusually thick sticky mucus. All of this information and more can be found at http://www.cff.org/AboutCF/.
