title: [Nutrition and Crohn's disease].
abstract: The relationships between non-specific inflammatory bowel disease and nutrition is considered. One of the hypotheses holds that environmental factors, especially those in dietary intake, can be the initiators of intestinal inflammation. In this connection authors examined a group of patients suffering from Crohns disease and ulcerative colitis. Results observed in patients with Crohns disease indicate: preferred consumption of flour products, decreased intake of vegetables and fruit, lowered tolerance to milk and milk products, increased sugar consumption, increased proportion of smokers, no differences in diet regimen between nick and healthy subjects.
