Crohn’s Disease

Crohn’s disease is a chronic inflammatory condition affecting the intestines, particularly the colon. It is part of a group of conditions known as inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) and is characterized by persistent inflammation, which can lead to ulcers, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and other gastrointestinal symptoms. Proper management of Crohn’s disease includes dietary and exercise care to help control inflammation, maintain nutrient absorption, and improve quality of life. At Revere Health, we provide personalized care for patients with Crohn’s disease to help them manage symptoms and maintain overall health.

Dietary Care for Crohn’s Disease
Low-Fiber Diet: During flare-ups, reducing fiber intake may help minimize irritation in the intestines and reduce symptoms such as diarrhea and abdominal cramping.
Balanced Nutrient Intake: A well-balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals is essential to avoid deficiencies caused by malabsorption.
Avoid Trigger Foods: Certain foods, like dairy products, fatty or fried foods, and spicy foods, may trigger symptoms and should be limited or avoided.
Stay Hydrated: Adequate hydration is important, especially during episodes of diarrhea, to prevent dehydration.

Exercise Recommendations
Low-Impact Exercise: Activities like walking, swimming, or cycling can help reduce stress, improve digestion, and maintain overall health without straining the digestive system.
Core Strengthening: Gentle core exercises can help support abdominal muscles, which are often affected by Crohn’s disease.
Stress-Relief Activities: Yoga, meditation, and other stress-reducing practices can alleviate symptoms, as stress can trigger or worsen flare-ups.
