- The relationship between culture and food and how to navigate that when a patient has IBD
- What food culture is and how it plays a role in our food choices
- How dietitians can show more cultural sensitivity and cultural competence
- How a patient can navigate diet around religious observances, such as fasting, and holidays within the culture, such as Diwali

    Thank you for sending me this link through Instagram, this is what I need . My BMI hasn’t been normal since 2017 and it’s 16 now and I have osteoporosis and I’m 50 1/2 years old and it’s so important for me to gain muscle and weight. I understand there is no one diet . I have been gluten free, dairy free, soy free , preservative and artificial free, very little sugar , caffeine and alcohol free for many many years . I eat mostly organic and grass fed meat for a little meat but mixed with plant protein. So that’s a bit about me - I was diagnosed about 18 years ago . Although I had it a lot longer looking back . Mine is illoceical valve and right and left . Mostly mine is microscopic based on biopsies . Only one time at initial diagnosis did they see it . I’ve had 6 colonoscopies during this journey . Despite all my exclusions I’m flared and in pain and again can’t gain weight 🥲. Which is important because of 2 types cancer history and always checking for reoccurrence.

    I went 100% Carnivore for 3 months as a last ditch effort to gain remission. I have Crohn's and UC. It was brilliant at first and loads of symptoms disappeared: asthma, acid reflux, restless legs etc. However, I ended up in hospital with a severe gallbladder infection, on IV antibiotics for a week. Now I have to avoid meat and fat so I'm back on vegetables.....

From my perspective on the research and years of experience I think there are lots of indications where it's just not a great fit for IBD. I can definitely see how people might notice symptom reduction - but that's not really the only goal with IBD. In fact we get so many IBD patients reaching out to us almost every week that have had lots of harm caused by going on keto/LCHF... there inflammation often goes up after trying it. Usually from reading anecdotal comments online.

      @thecrohnscolitisdietitians Před rokem

      We help people with strictures too- you can have fiber but it needs to be modified in the case of stricturing. Unfortunately, symptoms aren't the best way to tell if a dietary pattern is working- we need to look at inflammation markers and other things too. Symptoms only reveal a small part of if something is working. Fiber is an important part of reducing disease/flare risk in IBD but when strictures or other complications are present we do need to modify how we have it. I'd recommend working with and IBD focused dietitian on this if you can...

    OMG! thanks you guys! this was so my experience when I was diagnosed back in 2016 at 50 years of age. I was ignorant, dismissive and didn't have a clue. My GI also said diet doesn't mater. I was in and out of flare's until I got really sick in the late winter of 2021. As a grown man I lost 40lbs from 180lbs and they nearly removed my Colon. Med's were not working other than Prednisone. However, while I was very sick I was able to figure out on my own after endless research what would work for me. Specifically dietary. I really focused on this aspect. I modeled mine at first around Specific Carbohydrate Diet. Everything you guys mention is spot on and so true. I now keep within my therapeutic diet 80-90% of the time along with a maintenance med. I include a high amounts of raw fermented foods daily. Home cooking as much as possible. No processed foods. No Caffeine, added sugar or very little alcohol. I also learned that your body tries to tell you what you need. The minute I tried raw, unpasteurized Sauerkraut It hit me. This is what I was missing as I think my body was trying to tell me but I didn't realize! Gut-brain connection. This dietary awakening combined with a maintenance Biologic and a wellness plan is working for me. I just had a full colonoscopy after 2 years yesterday and it was totally normal! I do wish my GI sent me to see someone like you folks the day I was diagnosed!

      @thecrohnscolitisdietitians Před rokem

      Thank you Clay for the kind words! I totally get it... I've had many moments of just not knowing too when I was first diagnosed. Your doctor needs to get involved with the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation and get up to date with research... it does matter. It's insane to me that GI's still say this. It also matters when patients aren't sure what to eat, or are in too much pain to eat... this is where those of us with IBD really need better support from our health care system. I know you know this too or you wouldn't be here! Sounds like you've been through a lot. From one IBD warrior to another - wishing you lots of remission days ahead.

His doctor just said that the medication that he is on will be his last hope, after that, only surgery and I said No, surgery is not on the plate at this point. So I started a strong diet and fasting with him, yes he lost weight, but let me tell you, it worked and I believe he is in remission, no more going to the bathroom in the middle of the night, and dropping from 10 trips to 1, he uses the bathroom before going school, I guess a precaution. I think I will make a video and post it, I just don't know how that works.
