Cured meat

It's extremely important for people with Crohn's disease to get enough protein; at least 25% of your daily calorie intake should be protein-based.

These foods offer little nutritional benefit, while their high fat content can aggravate diarrhea for some people. Instead, choose lean high-quality proteins, like fish, soy, and smooth nut butters.
