summary

Crohn's disease was also known as "localized enteritis", "segmental enteritis", "chronic full-thickness inflammation of intestinal wall" and so on. It is more common in young people. It is characterized by granulomatous inflammatory lesions, combined with fibrosis and ulcer. It can invade any part of the whole gastrointestinal tract, including the mouth and anus. The lesions are segmental or jumping distribution, and can invade the outside of the intestinal tract, especially the skin. The course of disease is slow and easy to relapse. So what should we pay attention to when we get Crohn's disease? Let's discuss it together.

What is the diet taboo of Crohn's disease

First of all, patients with Crohn's disease should not eat spicy food, such as pepper, pepper and Zanthoxylum bungeanum; because spicy food will directly damage the gastrointestinal mucosa, especially the injured gastrointestinal mucosa, and also stimulate intestinal peristalsis and mucosal secretion, inducing or aggravating diarrhea, thus inducing or aggravating Crohn's disease.

Secondly, avoid eating gas producing food, such as onion and sweet potato; because gas producing food is easy to cause intestinal flatulence and increase the tension of intestinal wall, which is not conducive to the recovery of patients. Avoid eating indigestible food; zongzi, glutinous rice flour; indigestible food is easy to slow down the intestinal peristalsis, increase the burden of the intestinal tract, is not conducive to the recovery of patients.

Finally, do not eat rough food, because Crohn's disease patients with different degrees of gastrointestinal damage, rough diet is not conducive to digestion and absorption, and because the rough diet itself and secondary diarrhea aggravate the damage of gastrointestinal mucosa. Don't eat seafood and milk, especially raw seafood and milk contain a lot of protein, which can induce allergic reaction as antigen, thus inducing or aggravating the mucosal damage of digestive tract in patients with Crohn's disease.
