First seen Apr 02, 2026 · Last updated Jun 08, 2026 · Updated 9 times

Summary

This study tested two ways of using liquid nutrition to prevent Crohn's disease from flaring up again in children aged 6 to 18. One group got all their calories from a special liquid diet for one week out of every four (cyclic), while the other group got 25% of their calories from the same liquid diet daily. The goal was to see which approach better prevented relapses over 12 months.
