Abstract:
The pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) involves genetic and environmental factors. Diet is a potential and modifiable environmental risk factor for IBD onset and severity. Unhealthy diet can promote intestinal inflammation by dysregulating the immune system, altering intestinal permeability and the mucous layer and contributing to microbial dysbiosis. Dietary changes therefore may be incorporated into therapeutic strategies for IBD. In addition to the recognized enteral nutrition as the main treatment of IBD, more special diets are also widely used in the treatment of IBD. This article reviews the effects of special diet on the induction and maintenance of remission in patients with IBD, then discusses the future direction of dietary interventions in the treatment of IBD.
