ABSTRACT

Malnutrition is common in patients with inflammatory bowel disease(IBD). The therapeutic role of nutrition has attracted more and more attention in the development of IBD. In recent years, researches have demonstrated that nutrition support has its unique advantages in improving patients nutritional status and reducing adverse events, and it has been recommended as the first line therapy in children with active Crohn disease. Since there are no standardized guidelines of nutritional support therapy worldwide, this article is to review the relationship between nutrition and IBD, the choice of nutritional therapy mode, the duration of the nutritional treatment and evaluation of therapeutic effects based on Expert Consensus on Nutrition Support Therapy of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (2013·Shenzhen).
