How to Gain Weight When You Have IBD
Eat Nutritious Foods
Due to the presence of many digestive issues, people with IDB should avoid processed foods in their diet. Instead, go for more nutritious foods that are full of vitamins, minerals, and important nutrients for the body. These include seeds, nuts, dairy products, whole grains, beans, veggies, fruits, fatty fish, and lean meat. In general, the more “whole” and less processed your foods or drinks are, the better your diet would be. In general, avoid any products that come in boxes or bags as they tend to contain a lot of preservatives, additives, and other substances that are not good for your digestive health, especially in those with IBD.
