Fiber-free diet key to treating childhood Crohn's disease, new study finds

Research reveals how a fiber-free diet in Exclusive Enteral Nutrition (EEN) helps treat Crohn's disease in children by affecting the intestinal pathobiont Mucispirillum schaedleri. It shows that this diet alters gut microbiota, reducing Mucispirillum's pathogenicity and aiding in managing colitis.
