I eat a lot of raw nuts (soaked in advance so they are easier to digest), organic eggs, wild caught salmon, tuna, chickpea flour, bananas, berries, apple sauce. I also eat gluten free bread and potato chips, quinoa, brown rice

I would only eat (organic) almond butter, roasted preferably. Many of us Crohnies have an overload of toxic metals we should be detoxing of, and you don't won't turn add more to that burden with tuna or salmon (much higher in mercury compared to small sardines). You might like the sweet taste of berries, bananas, and other fruit, buy try to find vegetables to replace those with. Cooked sweet potatoes would be a nice transition.
"Because almonds are a fruit, that grows high in the air on a tree, they are very yin in terms of Chinese medicine. For this reason alone, they must be eaten sparingly on a nutritional balancing program.
Also, they are best eaten roasted, as this makes them much more yang in nature. It is true some nutrients are destroyed in the roasting process, and the oil is not as healthful. However, overall, the benefits of roasting seem to outweigh the disadvantages.
Also, as with all nuts and seeds, almonds are best eaten in the form of almond butter, rather than the whole nuts. The reason is that most people do not chew the nuts well enough, so the nutrition in them is not well absorbed. The nut butter should be as fresh as possible, preferably ground at the health food store, if possible. However, most commercial almond butter is fine, providing it is not eaten past its expiration date. Be sure to keep the butter or just almonds refrigerated to preserve freshness. Organic almond butter is best, but the regular almond butter is also okay if the price of the organic nut butter is too high."
