Low-fiber and low-residue diets may be recommended for patients with diverticulitis, ulcerative colitis, Crohnâs disease and bowel inflammation. These diets also are used when there is narrowing of the bowel, before or after major surgery of the digestive tract and when radiation therapy causes complications. Low-fiber and low-residue diets will slow the movement and decrease the amount of stool in the intestines. This may prevent blockage. Dietary fiber is found in plants and is not completely digested by humans. Residue is the fiber, plus other materials, found in the colon after digestion. A low-fiber diet contains less than food choices, 10 to 15 grams of fiber per day and eliminates foods known to increase the amount of stool. A low-residue diet is a low-fiber diet with added restrictions. Both low-fiber and low-residue diets will provide the Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs) if food choices are made appropriately. Long-term use of a low-fiber or low-residue diet may not provide needed amounts of vitamin C or folic acid.
