Hi
When food is eaten by someone with an ileostomy, it passes through the digestive system to the ileum and is collected in an external pouch. The food thus bypasses the remainder of the digestive system, including the large intestine, colon, rectum and anus. This surgery is sometimes used as a treatment for diseases such as ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease, which can require that the colon or a section of large intestine must be removed to preserve the health of the patient.
Thanks

Ileostomy diet can also be refined breakfast cereals and pasta, contrary to the general recommendation to eat whole grains. This is due to the extra fiber whole grains can cause digestive problems, or prevention of fistula.

To modify of what foods are eaten, ileostomy diet can also change how they eat. Eating smaller, more frequent meals in accordance with the timetable, it is important to promote regular digestion and stool output. In addition to reducing stool made from the smallest meal of the night must be taken in the evening.
