New IBD Research - Lancet Plant Based Discussion
from Gut Feelings - by The Crohn's & Colitis Dietitians · host The Crohn's & Colitis Dietitians
In this podcast, we talk about the findings of a recent study published in The Lancet regarding the benefits of a plant-based diet for people with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). We discuss the significance of including more plant-based foods in the diet, the importance of fiber for gut health, and practical steps for gradually introducing fiber into the diet. We have been talking about including more fiber and plant based foods into the diet for a long time and many research studies support this! Takeaways-- A plant-based diet can significantly reduce the risk of developing Crohn's and ulcerative colitis.- Individuals with IBD may experience fewer hospitalizations and surgeries when following a plant-based diet.- The study included a large sample size, enhancing the reliability of its findings.- Incorporating plants into the diet is crucial for gut health.- Fiber intake is linked to reduced flare-ups in IBD patients.- A gradual approach to increasing fiber intake is recommended.- Soluble fibers are often better tolerated by those with IBD.- Support and guidance can help individuals transition to a more plant-based diet.- The importance of plants in nutrition has been consistently supported by research.Chapters:00:00- Introduction to the Plant-Based Diet Research02:25- Impact of Plant-Based Diet on IBD05:14- Understanding Fiber and Gut Health07:14- Practical Steps for Introducing Fiber09:35- Encouragement and Support for Dietary ChangesSend 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.
