Hi I’ve just been diagnosed and was wondering I’m on the Modulen ibd and am I able to crunch my fox’s mints as I know I’m allowed them but I have been crunching them but now I’m thinking I might’ve only been allowed to suck on them? Sorry just worried that I’ve ruined it by crunching and eating bits of mints

Hi - I am sorry to read about your recent diagnosis. The only thing I can state is, if in doubt, talk to your gastroenterologist. Your GI can guide you through heaps of questions which you will have related to your medications, diet etc.
Second talk to your Gi or ibd nurse
Each Gi has different rules on what is allowed on een
Fwiw my kiddo was permitted pure table sugar (which we made into cotton candy and simple sugar candy ) , dum dum lollipops and crushed ice .
Some others were permitted two sticks of sugarless gum
Other Gi’s allow 10-20-% of calories to be from solid food
Good luck
