Could a liquid diet help Crohn's patients get better faster?

NCT ID NCT07356232

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether adding a special liquid diet (partial enteral nutrition) to standard medication helps people with active Crohn's disease achieve remission without steroids. About 80 participants will choose to either add the diet or not. The main goal is to see if more people on the diet are in remission after 8 weeks.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

Partial enteral nutrition (Kate Farms Peptide 1.5 formula) plus Crohn's Disease Exclusion Diet

What this could lead to

If it works, this could show that combining a special diet with medication is more effective than medication alone for controlling Crohn's disease.

What could go wrong

This is a small, non-randomized study, so results may not apply to everyone. The diet is restrictive and may be hard to follow long-term.
