The Impact of Specific Dietary Interventions on The Gut Microbiome in Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Systematic Review

This systematic review aims to explore the impact of specific dietary interventions on the gut microbiome in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). A comprehensive analysis of relevant studies was conducted, including investigations on the influence of inflammation, antibiotics, and diet on the gut microbiome in pediatric Crohn's disease, the effectiveness of dietary approaches such as semi-vegetarian diets and Mediterranean diets in relapse prevention and disease management, the role of probiotics in managing IBD, the effects of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and butyrate on gut inflammation, the relationship between dietary fiber and IBD risk, and other potential dietary interventions. The findings provide insights into the complex interactions between diet and the gut microbiome, highlighting the potential of dietary interventions in modulating the gut environment and potentially ameliorating inflammation in IBD
