👉 The Seattle Fluid, also known as the Seattle Protocol or the Seattle Protocol for Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), is a dietary intervention aimed at managing symptoms of inflammatory bowel conditions like Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. This approach involves temporarily eliminating gluten, dairy, and other potential irritants from the diet for a period of 4-6 weeks, followed by a gradual reintroduction of these foods while closely monitoring individual responses. The rationale behind this protocol is to reduce intestinal inflammation by identifying and eliminating specific dietary triggers that exacerbate symptoms, thereby improving overall gut health and quality of life for those suffering from IBD.
