Research Notes on Crohn's Disease and Gluten Free Diet
Crohn's disease is a chronic condition in which there is inflammation in the digestive tract. Many physicians recommend that patients who suffer from Crohn's avoid foods with gluten as an ingredient because it tends to irritate their condition.1 Because gluten is in many processed foods, Crohn's sufferers may find that eating fresh vegetables, meat and fish may minimize symptoms.1
Fast Facts:
- A gluten-free diet may not work for all patients.2
- Taking recommended medications along with the gluten-free diet increase the chances that the diet will be successful in helping to ward off or ease symptoms.3
- Some recommend removing all forms of yeast from the diet as well.4
