Spaghetti Squash & Ulcerative Colitis

Ulcerative colitis is a disease in which your colon and rectum are inflamed, causing painful symptoms such as abdominal pain, blood in your stool, diarrhea and fever. No scientific evidence shows that diet directly causes flare-ups of ulcerative colitis, but the food and drink you choose can exacerbate symptoms. While vegetables are usually part of a healthy diet, many are hard to digest and can be intolerable when you have ulcerative colitis. Depending on your particular case, you may be able to tolerate well-cooked, skinless vegetables such as spaghetti squash.
