Many Britons sympathized with the Confederates, but the working class supported Lincolnâs Emancipation Proclamation. Judah P. Benjamin, Confederate secretary of state, hoped that an embargo on âKing Cottonâ would force help from textile- producing countries.
Foods don't cause Crohn's, but some can worsen your symptoms, especially during flares. Common triggers include high-fiber foods, fried items, and spicy dishes. Write down the ones that seem to bother you, and then avoid them. During a flare, you may feel better if you try soft, bland foods and eat small meals during the day. A registered dietitian can help make sure you get enough nutrients.
Water, low-acid 100% fruit juice, caffeine-free coffee and tea, and skim milk are the best things you can drink if you have Crohnâs. Eat a Low Fiber Diet. Most people should eat a high fiber diet to promote regularity and keep the digestive system running smoothly. If you have Crohnâs disease, however, a high fiber diet is actually bad for you. Crohnâs causes severe diarrhea during a flare-up, and if you eat a high-fiber diet it will be more severe. Having Crohnâs disease also makes it more difficult to digest fiber, which makes the digestion process take longer and increases the likelihood of abdominal pain and bloating.
