Summary

This trial tests personalized eating plans recommended by an IBD dietician to improve patient tolerance and health.

Who is the study for?

They should be undergoing a colonoscopy but not on steroids, and their treatment hasn't changed recently. Non-IBD individuals and healthy family members can also participate as controls.

The study tests if personalized diets high in either pectin or B-fructan fibers, recommended by an IBD dietician based on individual responses, can be tolerated well by patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include digestive discomfort such as bloating or gas due to the high-fiber diets being tested. Individual reactions to dietary changes vary from person to person.
