مريض بداء كرون في نوبة نشطة. أي توصية غذائية مناسبة؟

A client with Crohn’s disease is in an active flare. Which dietary recommendation is appropriate?

1. Fluid restriction to reduce the number of stools per day
2. Low-fibre, high-protein, high-calorie diet with adequate fluids
3. Relying on milk and dairy as the main protein source
4. High-fibre foods such as raw vegetables and nuts

Answer: B) Low-fibre, high-protein, high-calorie diet with adequate fluids. During a flare, fibre is reduced to limit irritation and obstruction, and protein and calories are increased to replace losses, with adequate fluids. Some need specialised nutrition.
