This trial will study how changing your diet can affect inflammatory bowel disease. Blood & stool samples will be taken before & after diet changes & analyzed. Disease severity will be compared by measuring inflammation markers.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with mild to moderate Crohn's Disease, as indicated by specific disease activity and inflammation markers. Participants must not have started or changed their standard treatment recently, be on stable medication doses, and free from certain infections or antibiotic use.
What is being tested?
The study explores how a Mediterranean Diet affects individuals with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). It involves analyzing blood and stool samples before and after dietary changes to assess the impact on microbiome composition and inflammation levels in patients.
What are the potential side effects?
While the trial focuses on diet rather than medication, potential side effects may include digestive discomfort as the body adjusts to new eating habits. Allergic reactions are possible if participants are sensitive to any components of the Mediterranean Diet.
