Tuesday, February 29, 2023 Forgoing One Food Treats Eosinophilic Esophagitis as Well as Excluding Six Eliminating animal milk alone from the diet of adults with eosinophilic esophagitis, or EoE, is as effective at treating the disease as eliminating animal milk plus five other common foods, an NIH-funded clinical trial has found. For people with EoE whose disease remains active after they forgo animal milk, a more restrictive diet may help them achieve remission, according to the researchers. These findings were published in the journal The Lancet Gastroenterology & Hepatology.
