CLINICALLY SUPPORTED

Living with IBD can be complex. Support can be simpler.

IBD (Inflammatory Bowel Disease) including Crohn’s disease and Ulcerative Colitis, involves ongoing inflammation of the digestive tract that can disrupt absorption and gut function. Symptoms often fluctuate, with flares requiring added nutritional care.

mBIOTA Elemental offers a clinically supported way to simplify nutrition and support digestive comfort during periods of active inflammation.

What Is IBD?

IBD is a group of inflammatory conditions that cause ongoing inflammation in the digestive tract.

IBD (Inflammatory Bowel Disease) refers primarily to Crohn’s disease and Ulcerative Colitis. Crohn’s disease can affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract, while ulcerative colitis is limited to the colon and rectum. Both conditions involve immune-driven inflammation that can disrupt digestion and nutrient absorption.

Elemental nutrition supports digestive rest with comprehensive nourishment during IBD care, so your body can regain balance.

Common IBD Symptoms INCLUDE
  • Abdominal Pain
  • Bloating
  • Diarrhea
  • Constipation
  • Brain Fog
  • Fatigue
  • Gas
  • Bathroom Urgency
  • Distention
  • Belching
What Is an Elemental Diet?

An Elemental Diet is a medical sole nutrition therapy that rests digestion while providing comprehensive nourishment.

An Elemental Diet is a temporary, liquid nutrition therapy that provides essential nutrients in their purest, most "elemental" and easy-to-absorb forms. Because these proteins, fats, and carbohydrates are absorbed early in the small intestine, your body doesn’t have to work hard to digest them, allowing your gut to rest and recover while limiting fuel for excess bacteria that may be causing distress and discomfort.

Elemental Diets are used in IBD, Crohn’s disease and Ulcerative Colitis care to help calm digestive symptoms by reducing the fuel bacteria rely on and easing the work of digestion.

Elemental Diets in Crohn’s Disease

Elemental Diets have been studied as a nutrition-based approach for people living with Crohn’s disease.
Research published in the Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition concluded that Elemental Diets are¹:

RESEARCH FINDINGS
Clinically Validated for Inducing Remission
Shown in clinical research to help bring active Crohn’s disease into remission during treatment periods.
Comparable Efficacy to Corticosteroids
Studies have found similar remission outcomes when compared to steroid-based therapies used in clinical care.
More Favorable Side Effect Profile
Associated with fewer systemic side effects than corticosteroids, which can be difficult for some patients to tolerate.
Supports Remission Maintenance in Some Patients
May help support ongoing disease management for certain individuals when used as part of a broader care plan.
