FAQ #1: Diet and IBD
February 6, 2010When suffering from Crohn’s, Ulcerative Colitis, or any other IBD related illness, diet becomes a key component in trying to lessen the symptoms. Each individual can find a diet that may work. Others, like myself, cannot find a diet that will help completely. I tried numerous diets and although they offered relief, it was only temporary as my disease was too progressive for diet to impact me significantly. One that was semi-successful for me was the SCD diet. It restricts the use of complex carbohydrates, and it eliminates refined sugar, gluten, and starch. VERY STRICT! There are various cook books available with a wide variety of foods that stay within the confines of this diet. Surprisingly it was yummy! What was your diet like before, during, and after surgery? My video covers all three aspects. If you would like to share what diet works best for you, leave me a comment!!
