Enterální výživa v léčbě idiopatických střevních zánětů.

The article is trying to provide a comprehensive view of the role of enteral nutrition in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). By influencing nutrition, we can not only induce remission of Crohn's disease, or supplement the nutritional deficiency in patients with IBD, but we can influence one of the key factors in the pathogenesis of this disease. The complex pathophysiological mechanisms involved in the development of IBD include interactions between genetic factors, diet, intestinal microbiom and mucosal immune system. Current knowledge suggests, that by modifying eating habits we can not only change the development of an already ongoing disease, but also influence the risk of developing IBD. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
