Patients with an ileal pouch-anal anastomosis often experience complications like acute pouchitis. Studies on dietary interventions and supplements for pouch function improvement and pouchitis management have conflicting results. Concrete evidence-based recommendations are lacking, despite patient interest in maintaining pouch health through diet. This systematic review consolidates data on dietary patterns, interventions, and supplement effects in patients with an ileoanal pouch, highlighting the need for clear guidance and further research in this area.
