12 Inflammatory Bowel Disease Diet Foods That Ease Symptoms

10. Bone Broth

Bone broth is hydrating and provides amino acids and minerals that may support gut healing and comfort. Simmer bones gently with water and a few mild aromatics, then strain thoroughly to create a clear, soothing liquid. In Indian households, a light chicken or mutton stock simmered with small amounts of ginger and a bay leaf, then strained and served warm, serves the same purpose. Avoid heavy seasoning, large onion pieces, or whole spices that are left in the cup. Bone broth can be sipped between meals or used as the cooking liquid for khichdi or soft rice to boost flavor and calories without adding harsh textures. If you follow strict dietary restrictions or have renal issues, check with your clinician about broth mineral content. (Source: Nutrition practice)
