Reply to "Research question"

-The role that diet plays in UC and specifically the growing debate over whether reducing consumption of carbs, sugars and processed foods can ameliorate symptoms. This debate may be a hotter button topic in the context of pouchitis (Dr. Bo Shen is a leading expert who advocates reduction of carbs and sugars in pouchitis patients), but it has some interest with UC as well. One of my best friends just learned his 6 year old niece has UC and he and his sister have been getting into fights over the the young girl's diet. My friend takes the position that the girl is consuming too much sugar (lots of candy and soda) and pastas, and she should not be eating these foods. His sister seems to think it doesn't matter. Perhaps your research can assist in resolving this family feud? At stake is the future health of this young 6 year old girl, which of course is unknown at this time.
