Core Tip	Because of the need for effective treatments for mild to moderate Crohn’s disease, nutritional interventions like Modulen have been suggested as a potential option alongside pharmaceutical treatments. Nutritional therapy can improve clinical and endoscopic outcomes, though issues like taste intolerance and adherence remain challenges. Pharmaceutical treatments, such as budesonide, show promise in reducing inflammation, but they may be less effective for mucosal healing. Combining both approaches may offer better management for Crohn’s disease patients. More research is needed to explore long-term benefits and improve patient adherence to treatments.
