Brief Summary: The overall objective of this pilot intervention study is to determine the impact of grape powder (46g/day freeze dried whole grape powder provided by the California Table Grape Commission) on the gut microbiotacomposition in adult patients with the IBD subtype Crohn's disease (CD).
Detailed Description: This protocol is designed to investigate the effect of grape powder consumption in Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), in particular how grape powder consumption (provided as 46g/day grape powder; equivalent to 1.5 cups fresh grapes) alters the gut microbiota (GM) composition in humans with IBD. The investigators will focus on studying IBD patients affected with CD as a proof of principle that could be tested later in other IBD subtype (ulcerative colitis or others specific surgical conditions). The overall objective of this pilot intervention study is to determine the impact of grape powder (46g/day freeze dried whole grape powder provided by the California Table Grape Commission) on the GM composition in adult patients with the IBD subtype Crohn's disease (CD). An 28 day pilot study in adult CD patients at the Digestive Health Institutes (DHI) of University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center (UHCMC). table Participation in this study will last for a maximum of 28 days and will consist of two phases. Phase I (baseline period - 7 days) where all grapes and berries will be removed from the diet, and Phase II (intervention period - 21 days) where participants will be supplemented with 46g/d freeze-dried grape powder consumed as 22.5g packets twice daily. The dose of 46g/day of grape powder is equivalent to 1.5 cups of grapes. Participants will be asked to avoid consumption of all other grapes/berries during phase II. The investigators will compare the before and after changes in gut microbiota composition.
