Chocolate Pudding with Crohn's Disease

Status: Allowed with restrictions

Chocolate Pudding is classified as conditionally suitable for Crohn's Disease based on current dietary assessments. Dairy products contain calcium, protein and – depending on the product – varying amounts of lactose and fat, which can be relevant for certain conditions. With Crohn's disease in remission, tolerability is generally better than during an active flare. Dietary assessments nonetheless recommend introducing hard-to-digest or gas-producing foods gradually. The reasoning given is: high sugar, problematic with lactose intolerance. The assessment is based on experience-based assessments and expert consensus.
