Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if an app designed for diet education can help patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) learn about healthy eating. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * Is the app easy to use? * Is the app useful? Researchers will compare the diet app to see if it is better at teaching patients about a healthy diet than the standard information they may receive from their doctor. Participants will be asked to use the app for one month and answer surveys to see how easy the app is to use and if it leads to healthier eating.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) who are interested in managing their diet through an educational app. The study seeks individuals willing to use the app for a month and provide feedback via surveys.
What is being tested?
The MyIBDDiet app, designed to educate IBD patients on healthy eating habits, is being tested for ease of use and effectiveness compared to standard dietary advice from doctors.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves using an educational app rather than medication or medical procedures, there are no direct physical side effects expected from participating.
