Overview

Over the past 10 years, there are a large number of dietary treatments related to the CD, such as specific carbohydrate diet, low Fermentable Oligo-, Di-, Mono-saccharides And Polyols (FODMAP) diet, and allergen-free foods. But there is no consistent conclusion or convincing evidence about the effectiveness. Through the long-term clinical experience observation, we find most of the CD patients can get stable remission by removing refined food and intolerance food.This project aims at developing a new dietary therapy suitable for Chinese patients.

Description

The dietary therapy is based on the nutrient composition of exclusive enteral nutrition and is more in line with Chinese patients' dietary habits and economic conditions.
