🍞Are industrial breads rich in food additives the elephant in the room for people with #IBD❓ @Shelly_Shakhman, @TamarPfefferGik, @HenitYanaiMD, @Iris_Dotan, @LGodny & colleagues screened 233 breads in Israel and found: ✅ 37 different food additives were identified: 👉 84% were classified as highly processed 👉 An average of eight food additives 👉 Most breads contained preservatives (81%) and emulsifiers (76%) ✅ 51% of food additives used in the bread industry have been previously linked to: 🔥 Exacerbation of inflammation 🦠 Gut microbiome dysbiosis ⬆ cytokines that damage microbiota and the gut barrier ✅ Given the large quantities of bread consumed, the rise in mass production has led to a shift away from traditional baking methods 👉 High burden of IBD 💡 Food quality matters for IBD, and both patients and healthcare professionals should promote healthy eating choices that are away from the Western diet 📚 Shelly Shakhman et al. Nutrients. 2025; 17(13):2120.

Why not all children with Crohn's Disease Exclusion Diet ➕ enteral nutrition achieve remission❓ 💡 Tryptophan metabolites are associated with remission with dietary therapy ✅ Baseline assessment of kynurenine and ratios of tryptophan metabolites have the potential to predict dietary remission and non-remission 6 weeks later 🔸 The baseline fecal kynurenine level was ⬆️ in children in no remission ✅ Specific tryptophan metabolism features help predict the efficacy of nutritional therapies in pediatric Crohn's disease: 🔸 The ratio serotonin/kynurenine was the strongest predictor of Crohn's Disease Exclusion Diet + partial enteral-induced remission 🔸 The ratio 5-hydroxytryptophan/kynurenine predicted remission when following an only-liquid diet ✅ Metabolic shifts in tryptophan metabolites toward healthy controls by following nutritional therapies may explain remission rates 🎓 @BonehRotem, @EytanWine, Johan E. Van Limbergen & colleagues ⭐ These findings could help personalize dietary therapy for children with Crohn's disease @TAGastroenterol
