Abstract:
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), mainly including ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), is a gastroenterological tract inflammatory disease with unknown etiology. In recent years, the morbidity of IBD is gradually increased. Epidemiological survey has indicated that IBD is associated with Western diet. Western diet increases IBD susceptibility via affecting the composition of intestinal microflora, injuring intestinal barrier and activating the inherent immunity. This article reviewed the relationship between Western diet and the incidence rate and pathogenesis of IBD, and the diet intervention of IBD.
