Can you drink yogurt with chronic colitis



You can drink yogurt in moderation when chronic colitis is in remission.

Yogurt contains protein, zinc, vitamin A, vitamin D, calcium and other nutrients, so patients with chronic colitis in remission can drink some yogurt appropriately, but should not drink a lot of it at one time, so as not to increase the burden on the gastrointestinal tract.

However, for patients with acute attacks of chronic colitis should not drink yogurt, because at this time the patient may have diarrhea, and yogurt will lead to aggravation of the symptoms.

In daily life, patients with chronic colitis should maintain a healthy diet, eat small meals, avoid spicy, stimulating, greasy and gas-producing foods, and cooperate with the doctor for active treatment and regular colonoscopy.
