Crohn’s disease affects the abdomen causing painful inflammation in the digestive tract. Therefore, people suffering from Crohn’s disease may find it very difficult to consume their choice of food. When it comes to breakfast, a person with Crohn’s disease cannot randomly prefer anything. Because some foods, like dairy products and raw fruits, may aggravate the symptoms of the disease. Skipping breakfast is also not a good choice for people with Crohn’s disease.

Below is a list of breakfast recipes that will not cause complications among those suffering from Crohn’s disease.
