Prospective cohort study shows dietary habits affect inflammatory bowel disease activity, indicating potential dietary interventions.

To investigate how different dietary patterns impact disease activity in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
Conducted a prospective cohort study with 160 patients at a single center.
Assessed dietary intake using a validated food frequency questionnaire (FFQ).
Evaluated disease activity with the Harvey-Bradshaw Index (HBI), Mayo Score, CRP, and fecal calprotectin.
Performed multivariate analysis adjusting for various factors like age, sex, and ongoing therapies.
High consumption of ultra-processed foods linked to increased disease activity (OR = 2.18, p = 0.009).
Diet rich in fiber, fruits, and omega-3 associated with reduced flares (OR = 0.54, p = 0.03).
In patients with colonic Crohn’s disease, high refined sugar intake doubled the risk of higher HBI (70% vs 33%, p = 0.01).
Higher anti-inflammatory diet scores correlated with lower HBI and calprotectin levels.

Lasfar et al. (2026) studied this question.
