Preventative and therapeutic potential of nutrition for inflammatory bowel diseases: A narrative review

JPEN J Parenter Enteral Nutr. 2024 Feb 15. doi: 10.1002/jpen.2606. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDiet strongly shapes the gut microbiome and metabolome, which in turn influence intestinal inflammation in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Separate from inflammation and malnutrition, diet's direct interactions with the gastrointestinal system can also provoke or attenuate a host of nonspecific gastrointestinal symptoms. Given these multifaceted effects of diet on inflammation and symptoms, nutrition has been investigated for its potential roles in the prevention and treatment of IBD. This review presents epidemiological, observational cohort, and clinical trial evidence that underlie our current understanding of nutrition for prevention and treatment of IBD.PMID:38357793 | DOI:10.1002/jpen.2606
