Dr. Mutlu:
So as long as they do some of the things that they do and dietary choices that a person has, is towards the more general healthier diet and it is not a junk food diet, there is no problem with an inflammatory bowel disease patient eating anything they want, but moderation is the keyword here.
The patient with inflammatory bowel disease has to be making conscious choices and has to be doing things in moderation and not in excess in terms of certain foods and in terms of eating too much of certain foods and eating too little of the others.
