Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is an umbrella term for two diseases that involve the digestive tract: Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis.
Crohn’s disease is characterized by the inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract, anywhere in between the mouth to the anus. It usually affects the end of the small intestine.
Ulcerative colitis is characterized by the inflammation and formation of ulcers or sores in the gastrointestinal tract. It usually affects the colon or large intestine.
Symptoms of IBD include diarrhea, stomach pain and cramps, bleeding ulcers, bloody stool, fever, fatigue, loss of appetite, and dramatic weight loss.
Currently, Western medicine has not found a cure for IBD. Doctors usually prescribe medications such as steroids like Prednisone to help people with IBD manage their symptoms.

The Paleo diet helps improve certain medical conditions and is beneficial for overall health. Besides Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), the Paleo diet can treat several diseases like heart disease, diabetes, cancer, celiac disease, gout, lupus, and Alzheimer’s disease. It also helps with weight loss and helps improve skin health.
A list of the Paleo diet benefits for each of the following conditions is listed below:
- Heart disease: the Paleo diet reduces the risk of heart disease because it incorporates healthy foods that could reduce blood pressure and lipid profiles, such as triglycerides and cholesterol.
- Type 2 diabetes: the Paleo diet is beneficial for diabetes because it reduces sugar and carbohydrate intake.
- Cancer: the Paleo diet is beneficial for cancer because it is a low-carb diet. Tumors need glucose from carbohydrates to grow, so a low-carb diet stops tumors from growing. It increases fiber and fruit and vegetable intake, which is important in maintaining gut health as it protects against certain types of cancer.
- Celiac disease: the Paleo diet is beneficial for Celiac disease because it eliminates all the foods that aggravate the disease, including gluten, carbohydrates, sugar, and dairy. The Paleo diet also helps maintain the balance of good gut bacteria, which allows people with Celiac disease to absorb nutrients properly.
- Gout: the Paleo diet is beneficial for gout because it eliminates carbs and sugars. This causes the liver to produce normal levels of uric acid. The lack of carbs and sugars also helps kidneys excrete uric acid properly.
- Osteoporosis: the Paleo diet is beneficial for osteoporosis because it reduces inflammation in the body by incorporating a variety of fruits and vegetables, healthy oils, and fish that have anti-inflammatory properties. The diet also eliminates gluten because it causes inflammation in the body.
- Alzheimer’s: the Paleo diet is beneficial for Alzheimer’s because it reduces inflammation in the body by incorporating a variety of fruits and vegetables, healthy oils, and fish that have anti-inflammatory properties.
- Lupus: the Paleo diet is beneficial for lupus because it eliminates foods that increase intestinal permeability, which may trigger an unwanted immune response. It particularly encourages lupus patients to avoid gluten because it causes leaky gut. It also eliminates dairy, legumes, processed foods, refined sugars, and vegetable oils because they negatively affect gut health.
- Skin health: the Paleo diet is beneficial for skin health because it restricts foods that cause inflammation and promotes gut health by incorporating a variety of anti-inflammatory foods, such as fruits and vegetables, healthy oils, and fish that help prevent aging and heal the skin.
- Weight loss: the Paleo diet contributes to weight loss because it eliminates high-fat, high sugar, and processed foods. People on a Paleo diet might also notice an increase in satiety due to the higher intake of proteins and fats. Hence, they will consume smaller portions of food.

- Liver and pancreatic problems: the Paleo diet increases the consumption of fats. People with liver and kidney problems need to eat fats in moderation because eating large amounts of fats can further damage both the liver and the pancreas.
- Heart disease: the Paleo diet increases the consumption of meat, which can increase levels of saturated fats, possibly leading to heart disease. Hence, red meat should be consumed in moderation. The diet recommends that people consume lean meat.
- Type I diabetes: the Paleo diet decreases the carbohydrate intake that is normally consumed on a daily basis. To prevent hypoglycemia or low blood sugar, people with type I diabetes should consult their doctors to adjust the doses of their medication.
- Low blood pressure: the Paleo lowers one’s blood pressure because it lowers the levels of cortisol in the body and reduces one’s salt intake. People with low blood pressure should drink lots of water and eat foods with electrolytes to regulate their blood pressure. They should use natural sea salt if they need to add salt to their meals.

The Paleo diet is recommended for all individuals. However, it can cause some side effects. Always consult with a medical or healthcare expert before starting with a diet or treatment.
The following section contains a list of side effects you may experience while on the diet.
- Nutritional deficiencies: the Paleo diet eliminates some food groups from one’s diet. This can lead to nutritional deficiencies. For example, the diet does not incorporate dairy into meals, and this might lead to calcium and vitamin D deficiencies.
- Hypoglycemia: the Paleo diet decreases carbohydrate intake. This can lead to hypoglycemia or low blood sugar because the diet decreases the amount of glucose in the body.
- Low-carb flu: following the Paleo diet decreases carbohydrate intake, and many people report experiencing low-carb flu. The symptoms include headaches, fatigue, weakness, and irritability, but these will go away on their own within a couple of days to several weeks at most.
- Halitosis or bad breath: The Paleo diet increases one’s consumption of protein. This may cause bad breath because increased protein intake causes the gut to produce hydrogen sulfide to digest foods properly but can also cause bad breath.
You can also have bad breath on the Paleo diet if your body has gone into ketosis. While ketones are a great source of energy, they can also contribute to bad breath.
