Malnutrition may occur in ulcerative colitis, although it tends to be less severe than with Crohns disease. Patients with ulcerative colitis may experience reduced appetite and weight loss.

These include protein sources such as meat, chicken, fish or soy; dairy products such as milk, yogurt, and cheese (if the patient is not lactose-intolerant); and fruits and vegetables.
Depending on your nutritional status, take a multivitamin or iron supplement. Other types of dietary supplements, such as probiotics (healthy bacteria like lactobacilli),
Certain types of foods may worsen diarrhea and gas symptoms, especially during times of active disease.
