| Primary Research Focus | It has been suggested that dietary fiber intake can influence the gastrointestinal microbiota and the development of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, few studies have examined fermentable fiber intake and its role in IBD patients. We aimed to determine the relationship between dietary fiber intake and IBD severity as well as disease-related quality of life. |
