What this study is about

This trial is testing a dietary supplement called 2'-FL in people with Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD), Crohn's Disease, and Ulcerative Colitis. Participants will receive either 2'-FL or a placebo daily while on stable anti-TNF therapy. The goal is to see if 2'-FL is safe and well-tolerated, and whether it affects the gut microbiome.
