I'm not a doctor, but have friends that deal with this condition. Little pockets form on the wall of the large intestine and certain foods can get caught in these pockets. From there, they can cause an ulceration.

My friends have to avoid anything with small seeds, like tomatoes, salsa, peppercinis, etc. Also, sometimes nuts can cause a problem.

I am sure there are other things, so I would consult his Dr. for more info.
