    The study evaluated the combined effects of a low-FODMAP diet and probiotics on adults with mild-to-moderate ulcerative colitis.

  • 2

    Eighty adults participated, stratified into four groups: low-FODMAP + probiotic, low-FODMAP only, probiotic only, and standard care.

  • 3

    The combined low-FODMAP + probiotic group showed the greatest reduction in Mayo score and C-reactive protein, with 60% achieving clinical remission.

  • 4

    Significant improvements in fecal calprotectin levels were also observed in the combined treatment group.

  • 5

    The findings suggest a potential benefit of the combined approach, though further research is needed to confirm these results.
