Answer to Question 1

A
A low-fat, low-fiber, high-protein, high-calorie diet is recommended for the patient with IBD to make up for the loss of fluid and nutrients in the frequent stools. Low-fat, low-fiber, high-protein, high-calorie foods include foods like white grains or starches and lean, tender meats. Whole grains are extremely high in fiber and should be avoided. A soft diet is not indi-cated. Green leafy vegetables are a rich source not only of vitamin K, but also of fiber.
