IBD-AID Research/News

We teach the Anti-Inflammatory Diet for patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD-AID, see publication http://works.bepress.com/barbara_olendzki/46/

Conclusion: This case series indicates the potential for the IBD-AID to be used as an adjunctive or alternative therapy for the treatment of IBD. Notably, 9 out of 11 patients were able to be managed without anti-TNF therapy, and 100% of the patients had their symptoms reduced. To make clear recommendations for its use in clinical practice, randomized trials are needed alongside strategies to improve acceptability and compliance with the IBD-AID.
