| Popis: | Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, cause inflammation of the digestive tract. It is estimated that about three million Americans and, globally, over six million individuals, suffer from IBD. While most physicians, especially gastroenterologists, are experts in the function and pathology of the gastrointestinal tract, factors such as nutrition science education and training, bandwidth, culture, language, and the longitudinal nature of dietary care, represent some of the barriers to receiving optimal nutritional guidance. Remote dietary expert counseling, an emerging solution that has been further highlighted by the COVID-19 pandemic, can improve IBD patients’ nutritional status, avoid food triggers, and reduce the frequency and severity of exacerbations. Lay Summary Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, causes inflammation of the digestive tract. Remote nutritional expert care can improve IBD patients’ nutritional status, avoid food triggers, and reduce the frequency and severity of exacerbations. |
