A novel dietary intervention combining a standardized IBD diet (IBD-AID) with supplementation from a pea protein plant-based oral nutrition supplement (ONS) (Kate Farms Peptide 1.5) to improve protein, calorie, and nutrient intake in adult patients experiencing a Crohn's disease flare starting new immunologic therapy. Additionally, this study will include objective measures of body composition to improve nutrition status assessment and provide a more sensitive measure of intervention efficacy compared to anthropometric measures of body weight or BMI.
