My mom has chrons and she can’t tolerate to much meat. She is almost vegetarian now and doing so much better. Her vegetarian diet wasn’t by choice, it is what works. She had to give up meat for her health. She is also on fiber and takes turmeric which has also been a huge help. It is mostly red meat she can’t tolerate. She does alright with pork, chicken and fish in limited quantities. This Doctor speaks the truth!

[@amitloutube]

I do the same but I also do heavy juicing and heavy fermented pickled vegetables and its helping a lot as 50yr old

[@hai2560]

Foods triggers for me- 1. Raw Jack fruit (cooked one is fine) 2. Peanut 3. wheat ( silent killer in Crohn’s) 4. Jaggery 5. tamarind 6. Cooked green bananas 7. All food in excess ( so eat less) 8. Fried foods 9. Dairy 10. Sugar ( which starts inflammation) 11. Stopped animal protein 12. Make sure we should poo every day ( salt water enema otherwise ) 13chilly powder ( green chilly in moderate is fine) 14. All grains horse gram,daal, green peas, beans, nuts ( coconut is ok for me) If I avoid above I will be in remission forever … as a human I can’t live like a textbook.. so when I skip these I used to suffer… slowly introducing fibre food daily( raw vegetables and fruits) is the key to subdue the symptoms . During flare up I used to have only fruit juice ( make sure it means clear water) for 5 days. If we follow these then can avoid surgery in our entire life… this works for 80% of Crohn’s disease.. if you have fistula then need surgery. First clear it then starts above diet.. - Crohn’s fighter for 8 years

[@shannanigansisme]

Thanks for this!!

[@bbspooks]

This is very different for me. I don't believe this information. I don't have issues with any meats, I have a minor lactose intolerance to milk protein concentrate in pre-made protein shakes but not whey or casein. Eggs are essential and very easy to digest. All my symptoms come on from fruit like apples, a ton of different vegetables notably broccoli, spinach, and brussels even when very well cooked or even mashed in the case of cauliflower, any beans or legumes. And definitely whole grains like barley, brown rice, millet, anything you'd find in Korean 12 grain mixes. All these sent me to the ER or had me house locked on the toilet with severe dehydration for an entire week. And seeds. Never once has any source of animal protein caused me an issue. Don't believe the plant based pushing, its politics. A balanced diet is very important so the goal is to introduce vegetables and fruit and grains eventually. But animal protein is 100% necessary and more nutritious and digestible than anything he lists. Theres so much research to back it along with so many personal accounts. I find myself not able to trust this man as he recommends eating foods that are very inflammatory and cause severe symptoms in the majority of IBD patients. This again, is well documented. He pushes a plant based agenda using minimal fringe and biased studies. Do your research before you trust this man or you could end up in the ER from eating highly inflammatory, gut irritating foods that he's recommended.

[@amitloutube]

@@bbspooks I also have lactose intolrence so now at 46 yrs old I am taking lactose free milk or lactose free yogurt and its working for me!! I also get rashes when I have whey so even in milk I make it into paneer so whey goes away, so I know anything that causes rashes or bloating meaning not good for me! I also now take probiotic and fermented pickles everyday plus big juices of orange apple or pinaple daily and its helping me

[@grannygoes7882]

@@bbspooks I'm glad I have a habit of reading comments while listening. I can skip this one. I do the best on strict carnivore. I know what sets me off, my two favorite things, coffee, alcohol, and vegetables. I still drink coffee and if I'm only eating meat and mostly red meat, I can tolerate coffee. When I get off the carnivore diet I have to cut out coffee until my symptoms are under control.

[@bbspooks]

@amitloutube I also do lactose free milk but I can tolerate kefir and yogurt. I enjoy cottage cheese and goat cheese without any issues too. I don't consume sugar, any glucose spike is from carbohydrates from starchy foods which I eat only one or two servings a day usually in the form of protein isolate mixed with oats, potatoes, sweet potatoes, white rice, egg noodles, and bread (I only eat sourdough and seedless rye). Occasionally I will have minimal sugar in 72% and higher dark chocolate or cacao nibs. I also eat some fruit like pineapple, honeydew, cantaloupe, watermelon, kiwi, mango, papaya, guava, strawberries, blueberries, banana, or citrus fruits. I put those in rotation so I don't get bored and usually eat one serving a day. I like juice but I don't have a juicer and I don't consume added sugars so I don't drink it. I like to keep things minimal and as unprocessed as possible, and I find it hard to find 100% juice in my area. As far as vegetables I now can tolerate spinach or kale but only in a small dose like one cup uncooked and I have to chop it into smaller pieces even if it's baby spinach; then I sauté it in a pan until it's really tender or steam it by putting a fine mesh strainer over a boiling pot of water. I also can blend a cup of spinach with a serving of frozen blueberries with some kefir, cacao nibs, powdered peanut butter, collagen, glutamine, creatine, and protein isolate powder and drink as a shake. I seem to be able to tolerate well cooked bellpeppers and mushrooms as well but I have to really mince them finely so they don't irritate my stomach. Any time I've tried to eat them whole it hasn't gone well. I enjoy avocado with no problems. Zucchini and squash and carrot sauté is well tolerated. Pumpkin puree is good. I can eat a single tomato slice but anything more or any tomato sauce will destroy me. Green beans and English peas are fine. I'm beginning to experiment with asparagus. I can't eat beans, chickpeas, and lentils at all. I can't have seeds. I can't eat apples or apple-like fruit that has that fiber because it stops me up and makes my stomach distended. Also cannot eat spicy food. I can tolerate mild kimchi. And I drink coconut water every day then 2 liters of water mixed with electrolytes. I can have coffee with no issues. Any time I sweeten something it's with stevia, xylitol, or monkfruit. Very small amounts of honey and sugar free maple syrup. And a couple of walnuts are tolerated. The thing that's helped a lot for me is bone broth. I make a paste by grinding up fresh tumeric, fresh ginger, and fresh garlic in equal parts. I'll sometimes add ground lemongrass and/or ground scallion/green onion. Very ground, into a smooth paste. Then I add 1.5% of the total weight in quality sea salt, add some freshly ground black pepper, mix it well. Then cover it with kimchi juice. You can add a bit of apple cider vinegar and lemon juice if you wish but kimchi juice makes it great. I let it ferment. Then I'll add a bit to my bone broth with a ¼ teaspoon of hot honey and shoyu, and I add my L-Glutamine and some extra collage peptides. It's very good. I make sure I take vitamin C alongside it for collagen aborption or I'll just enjoy my serving of fruit for the day with it if it's something like an orange, kiwi, or strawberries that have high vitamin C content.

Healthy disagreement is good. In my clients, garlic has not exacerbated inflammation. But they follow a very comprehensive set of interventions to achieve this.

Yikes, more doctors using big medical terms while wearing lab coats on KZbin. When you see this run away. Eat meat, eat eggs, stay 100% away from sugar, seed oils, and all processed foods and watch what happens. I have no colon, was diagnosed w/Crohns/uc over 25 years ago. I’m 51 now and in the best health of my life w/no drugs and great bio markers. My gastroenterologist has nothing to do and that should be the goal, period. Everyone is different though so do your research and always question the Rx pad. Doctors get little to no education on nutrition in school. Dietitians are just as lost at times as their info can be wildly incorrect, misleading, and inconsistent. Be smart, be strategic, take notes, pay attention, and be the owner of your health.

[@MindGutImmunity]

I noticed you said... you have no colon.... was it surgically removed?

[@theeradic5629]

When you say stay away from sugar does that mean high fructose corn syrup, cane sugar, sucralose, glucose, allulose, and artificial sugars like stevia and sweet and low and such? Because even things that claim to be sugar free have some sort of sweetener in them. What has been your experience? What do you do for snacks and in between meals?

What I can eat in moderation: eggs, meats (except beef), garlic, onion, herbs, asparagus, fruit in small amounts, popcorn (which I'm happy about since I love popcorn), squash, fresh salads, arugula, with radishes, zucchini, onions, garlic, herbs, celery, avocado, carrots, olive oil & vinegar.

Dairy, nuts (almonds and pecans being the biggest ones, can't even have almond milk), leafy greens (can have spinach in extreme moderation). If I have beef too many days in a row, I'm dying for a week, weirdly ok with hamburger though. Same with too much candy, so basically cut that out. Raw fruits, and vegetables, can stomach mangoes, cucumbers. Oatmeal, corn, turmeric paste, anything with seeds, shredded coconut (sometimes). Too much deep-fried foods, spicy food (made the mistake of eating half a bowl of salsa with Tostitos and it sent me into a flare up for 2 weeks). Been on Stelara for a year now and its helped a lot, but the Crohn's is active still and this latest flare-up I think I'm starting to have a reaction to eggs.

Thank you for the information about the eggs. I felt like I was going crazy thinking that something as gentle and as harmless as an egg cause my recent Crohn's flare. I do love eggs and I have already have a very limited diet so I am wondering if taking enzyme supplements or eating a lot of the leafy green vegetables and asparagus that you mentioned in the future will I be able to return to eggs. While I'm in my current flair the only thing I've been able to eat is pork and chicken liver. That may sound strange but fruits I think the sugar has been too hard for me and vegetables the fiber puts me in so much pain even cooked and chicken bother me broth bothered me. Smoothies bothered me. I'm not sure about all the coconut products I used they may have been bothering me but I'm not sure. But I ate some eggs I had pain and diarrhea. And each time I eat eggs I got diarrhea within 20 minutes. And I'm in a flare now without the diarrhea just a pain and discomfort. But I am hoping when the flare is over to start increasing my my diet slowly adding back fruits and vegetables and then other meats. And maybe one day eggs again. Because I also have ankylosing spondylitis I am not able to eat any grains or starchy Foods. I have not been able to eat starchy foods for 15 years.

Sorry to hear this. You did nothing wrong! Our food system is filled with junk and we all ate it at one time or another. Some people get Crohn's others will get something else down the line. Now is the time to be strong. Listen to your doctors, but also start to eliminate processed junk, even it it doesn't seem to be effecting you in the short run. By "junk" I mean soda, cake, chips, pizza... anything packaged with a bunch of artificial ingredients and lots of sugar, white flour and oil. This is especially challenging for teenagers. Try to eat more fruits and vegetables, but you may have to add them gradually. When you're having symptoms, you may not be able to tolerate them, particularly in whole raw form. Try smoothies. If you can, speak to a registered dietician, hopefully one who is well informed. You're not alone. A lot of teens get Crohn's. Maybe you can join a support group. I wish you the best.

So I notice the doctors sayin alot right stuff except stuff abt not eat fruit and vegetables smdh. Alot doctors will tell some right like they all saw sweets trigger inflammation. Also I can't eat popcorn or seeds, like sunflower seeds. It always hurt my stomach bc the rough and small seeds get trapped in my intestine which cause the inflammation. That's what Crohn's is it's inability to produce enough healthy guy bacteria and enzymes to help breakdown food digest properly and easily getting trapped in intestines causing inflammation, constipation, gas and bloat, diarrhea and thinning of intestine lining, inability to absorb nutrients properly causing weight loss inability gain weight, also uncontrollable bowl from all backed up stool finally coming out etc And I notice the docs dnt say dnt eat meat. The ppl w Crohns saying they stop eat meat. And it's common sense whatever is already harder to digest to stop eat so fact doctors not sayin that they not tryna help ppl heal. They telling stuff easier for ppl eliminate. And I realize the ppl still have prob sayin they eat meat and can't eat fruit and vegetables so the doctors also have program they mind so they keep eat what's hurting them and not what's healing them

Please can you link good quality supplements that have the qualities you mentioned aboud the ph levels??? My husband has crohn and he had illium resection 4 months ago. 60 cm off the small intestine was inflamed

[@grannygoes7882]

Sorry to hear that. How is he doing now? I had a hospitalist tell me years ago to NEVER let anyone cut on me and I haven't. Inflammation goes away the scar tissue from surgery doesn't and it will cause more problems down the line.

[@starshinesunfield3026]

After my resection surgery, my doctor told me I could eat anything I wanted to, that there is no specific diet for Crohn's. Not to mention that nobody knows what causes it, what to do for it besides surgery and steroids and medications that make you sicker, and they also cheerily let you know that there is no cure.

[@sectionalsofa]

Yes, me too, but I went to several GI docs to synthesize their opinions. While all were champions of meds, some were more nuanced in their assessment and willing to wait and see. Granted, my Crohn's was not severe so it was easier for me to do. I consulted Dr. Google who has a lot to offer if you know how to work it. Dr Robbyne Chutkan, Dr Alan Desmond and Dr. Will Bulsewicz are all aware of the impact of the western junk food diet on Crohn's. Eliminating all junk and most saturated fat, consuming lots of vegetables and green smoothies, I've managed to keep the disease in check .Ultrasounds and MRIs have shown regression rather than progression without meds. But, if these tests had shown progression, I'd probably have agreed to taking a biologic.

[@acephalica]

​@@sectionalsofaI agree with everything and have a similar experience. And on the top of that add fermented foods (which biologics are related to?)

[@grannygoes7882]

@@acephalica Biologics just suppress your immune system so you don't react so severely. They don't do anything for the disease itself.

[@grannygoes7882]

The reason doctors don't suggest a diet (well except for youtube docs) is because there is no consistency is what works. Everyone is different. You really have to figure it out for yourself. I've counseled people (since I've had crohn's for 30 years) to pick one thing, something you can eat for a very long time, and just eat that till you are symptom free. One healthy thing of course. I chose meat as I already knew most veggies set me off big time. I was also very lucky early on to have a hospitalist tell me to NEVER let anyone cut on me. He said inflammation goes a way but scar tissue doesn't and the scar tissue will give you strictures and obstructions. 30 years and my colon is intact!

[@bingliu707]

Not sure why, a steak or hamburger will set me off but if I stir fry hamburger with cabbage over rice I'm fine. Dairy in moderation doesn't present a problem. Processed foods and fried foods in general do me in. I miss coffee but it's not worth the upset. Most breads are bad but bagel's seem ok. Onions are evil, especially onion powder which sucks because I loved onions. Try finding prepared food without onions or onion powder. Who knows, it seems the universe finds random and increasing ways to screw with my guts.

Add whey powder to smoothies, will add approx 25g protein per shake depending on which whey you use

[@bbspooks]

This is very different for me. I don't believe this information. I don't have issues with any meats, I have a minor lactose intolerance to milk protein concentrate in pre-made protein shakes but not whey or casein. Eggs are essential and very easy to digest. All my symptoms come on from fruit like apples, a ton of different vegetables notably broccoli, spinach, and brussels even when very well cooked or even mashed in the case of cauliflower, any beans or legumes. And definitely whole grains like barley, brown rice, millet, anything you'd find in Korean 12 grain mixes. All these sent me to the ER or had me house locked on the toilet with severe dehydration for an entire week. And seeds. Never once has any source of animal protein caused me an issue. Don't believe the plant based pushing, its politics. A balanced diet is very important so the goal is to introduce vegetables and fruit and grains eventually. But animal protein is 100% necessary and more nutritious and digestible than anything he lists. Theres so much research to back it along with so many personal accounts. I find myself not able to trust this man as he recommends eating foods that are very inflammatory and cause severe symptoms in the majority of IBD patients. This again, is well documented. He pushes a plant based agenda using minimal fringe and biased studies. Do your research before you trust this man or you could end up in the ER from eating highly inflammatory, gut irritating foods that he's recommended.

[@acephalica]

If you read the comments you see two groups: one it's intolerant to meat and does well with plant based and the other the opposite. I'm part of the first one

[@asyncasync]

Diet can affect the symptoms, much like lightly poking at a blister can give you pain, while actually not affecting the severity much nor the time it takes to heal, though. I really do not think you can use diet to control this disease. The cause is something that does not care what food you eat. Maybe if you are in a fair and have an infection certain foods could cause other issues to get worse, but the Crohn's just does what it does.

[@sectionalsofa]

I do think it may be unlikely if not impossible to completely 'cure' Crohn's, I'm sure a healthy whole plant based diet with no highly processed foods can go a very long way. Listen to Dr. Robynne Chutkan. She used to roll her eyes at those that thought diet had an impact on Ctohn's until she scoped patients who followed a whole food plant based diet and repeatedly saw their disease go into remission. Now she's an advocate for a largely whole plant based diet for IBD sufferers.
