Ulcerative Colitis Diet Plan: Best & Worst Food

Dairy Products

Another common food intolerance in many people with ulcerates is dairy. Thus, whenever you suspect that dairy products might be a trigger of symptoms, immediately remove all forms in your kitchen to minimize the risks. These include cheese, yogurt, milk, as well as butter. Do this for at least 4 weeks so that your body would heal from the inflammation. You can choose those dairy products that are lactose-free and sugar-free to avoid triggering some common symptoms of ulcerative colitis. Also, work with your dietitian or doctor to set up an elimination diet to help with your condition. [15]
