Supportive Diet - Dietary Solution for Digestive Issues

The aim of an easily digestible diet is to provide the body with energy and an adequate amount of nutrients and minerals from easily digestible foods that are quickly absorbed and do not overburden the digestive system. This diet excludes bloating and spicy foods. Fatty and hard-to-digest meals should be avoided. Daily intake of dietary fiber should be around 20-24 g. In an easily digestible diet, cooking methods such as cooking and sautéing without fat should be used. It is not recommended to fry or bake dishes with fat. In certain cases, it may be necessary to make some adjustments to the diet.

A low-residue diet is recommended for all patients with digestive disorders. These include inflammatory conditions of the mucosa in any part of the digestive tract, excessive gut motility, gastrointestinal cancers, remission/equalization of kidney diseases, infectious/viral diseases with fever, acute inflammation of the stomach and intestines, cardiovascular diseases (stroke, heart attack, pulmonary embolism), advanced age, and recovery from surgery. It is believed that a low-residue diet, in combination with an appropriate calorie reduction, can be an effective method of weight loss. Long-term application can effectively help to lose excess body weight without the yo-yo effect.
