Understanding Facilitators And Barriers To Dietary Management Of Type 2 Diabetes Among Hispanic Men: Perceptions Of Health Professionals, Leah Galitzdorfer, Melissa Fuster Phd, Pamela Koch Edd, Rd
Publications and Research

Few clinical studies have found that dietary or nutritional factors significantly influence ulcerative colitis (UC}(l,2}. It is noteworthy, however, that a range of factors have been researched including dietary components such as refined sugars (3,4}, allergenic foods (1,5,6} and fast foods (7), as well as nutritional supplement effects from fish oil (2), zinc (8), glutamine (9), folate (10, 11} and alpha-tocopherolquinone (12}. More recently investigators have also examined the interelationships between bowel flora and UC, including factors such as flora changes (13,14), endotoxemia (15} and supplementation effects with Lactobacillous species (16,17).
