from Gut Feelings - by The Crohn's & Colitis Dietitians · host Crohn's and Colitis Dietitians

Top reasons why low residue didn't REALLY help you....Here's the thing - low residue is not recommended as an effective or helpful strategy long term with IBD and can impact your symptoms and risk in the long run.In fact there is no reputable organization that recommends it for IBD because we have decades of research pointing to the importance keeping color and fiber in the diet when it comes to IBD for best outcomes.Instead of taking more things out - when we work with our patients in a flare up - we focus on modifying gut friendly foods that trigger symptoms and focus on slow advancements in the diet.Did you know when you take this approach - your gut bacteria actually get better at breaking down foods and symptoms can reduce with time?Send us Fan MailNeed Support from an IBD Dietitian?🌟Work with us hereOne-on-One Coaching🌟Affordable MembershipIBD Nutrition CollectiveWant our Top E-books?🌈Get our top e-book hereFlare Guide + Meal PlanFor Sensitive Guts & Symptom Relief🌈We developed a product for youBack to Balance PlusSupport our Growing YouTube by Subscribing🎊Subscribe to YouTubeWe love helping provide quality content on IBD nutrition and making it more accessible to all through our podcast, instagram and youtube channel.
