The dietary recommendations and strategies for chronic inflammatory bowel diseases contained in this book have been carefully researched and reviewed. However, they cannot replace individual dietary advice or medical treatment. Due to the complexity of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, as well as individual intolerances and disease courses, reactions to certain foods and dietary forms can vary significantly. The presented dietary concepts and meal plans are to be understood as guidelines. Before implementing the described dietary strategies, it is essential to consult with the treating physician and/or a qualified nutritionist. This is particularly important in cases of acute disease flare-ups, medication use, or comorbidities. Medical knowledge and therapeutic recommendations in the field of chronic inflammatory bowel diseases are constantly evolving.

How does our diet influence the course of chronic inflammatory bowel diseases? The intestine, as a central digestive organ, reacts particularly sensitively to the composition of our food and its processing in the body. Individuals with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis face special challenges in their daily food choices. The right diet can not only alleviate symptoms but also significantly improve quality of life. In this chapter, you will discover the fundamental connections between diet and gut health—knowledge that can sustainably change the management of the disease.
Chronic inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) impose special requirements on nutrition. Inflammation, malabsorption, and diarrhea affect the need for macro- and micronutrients. Inadequate supply can negatively influence the course of the disease and lead to deficiencies. This section highlights the specific nutrient needs in IBD and the challenges of optimal nutrient supply. It addresses the importance of protein, vitamins, and minerals, particularly during acute flare-ups and in cases of malabsorption. Read on to understand the fundamentals of a needs-based diet in IBD and positively impact your quality of life.
In chronic inflammatory bowel diseases, there is an increased need for protein, vitamins, and minerals due to inflammation, malabsorption, and diarrhea, which should be regularly monitored and balanced through an adjusted diet or supplementation.
Patients experiencing an acute flare require significantly more protein than those in remission. The elevated need highlights the importance of nutritional support during active disease to aid in tissue repair and immune function. While requirements are lower during remission, adequate protein intake is still essential for overall health and preventing future flares.
Vitamin D and B12 are the most common deficiencies observed, highlighting the importance of monitoring and supplementation in IBD patients. Iron deficiency, though not a vitamin, is also prevalent, emphasizing the need for comprehensive nutritional assessment. While other deficiencies are less frequent, they still contribute to the overall nutritional burden in this patient population and should be considered in clinical management.
The loss of minerals increases with the severity of the disease. In mild CED, the loss is moderate, while in severe CED, a substantial loss is observed. This underlines the importance of adequate mineral intake, especially in severe cases.
