Can you eat pasta if you have Crohn's Disease?
Yes. While there is no hard evidence that any particular food can cause or contribute to Crohn's disease or other types of IBD but they may exacerbate symptoms and should be avoided. Once the disease has developed, special attention to diet may help reduce symptoms, replace lost nutrients, and promote healing. Crohn's is associated with diarrhea and poor absorption of dietary protein, fat, carbohydrates, and water. Pasta is a good bland source of carbohydrates easily digested. It should be noted that the appetite is often reduced in people with Crohn's disease and that chronic diseases tend to increase the energy or caloric needs of the body. In other words, you should eat whatever and when ever you can tolerate when having a flare up of Crohns. Long time sufferers will often tell you a "craving" for certain foods often precedes an episode or flare.
