Description

Diverticulosis is a condition in which small pouches-also known as diverticula-bulge out from the colon (the lower part of the large intestine). It's believed to be caused by habitually consuming a low-fiber diet, coupled with a genetic predisposition to the disease. Your risk of developing diverticulosis increases with age, with about half of all people over age 60 having some form of it.Luckily, many people with diverticulosis don't suffer symptoms. However, diverticulitis, a flare up of diverticulosis, is much more serious and requires medical treatment. While you can't make diverticula go away once they're formed, you can take certain precautions, like following a diverticulitis diet, to prevent a flare or keep it from getting worse.While high-fiber foods should be a part of your diet, one exception is to avoid them during a diverticulitis flare. If you begin to experience symptoms like abdominal pain, fever, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or constipation, and chills, you are likely experiencing a diverticulitis flare. Make an appointment to see your doctor, who will likely prescribe antibiotics and a clear liquid diet.A clear liquid diet is very restricted and designed to give your digestive system a rest. Think: water, ice chips, fruit juices (no pulp), ice pops (no pulp or fruit), gelatin, tea and coffee (without milk or cream).When the symptoms of the flare begin to subside, you should talk to your doctor to see if you're ready to start reintroducing some low-fiber foods. Start with foods like canned or cooked fruits (without skin), canned or cooked soft vegetables like potatoes (without the skin), eggs, fish and poultry, white bread, low-fiber cereals, milk, yogurt, cheese, rice and pasta.You should not progress yourself through this diet without your doctor's guidance. After the inflammation is completely gone and you are cleared by your doctor, you should start eating high-fiber foods again. And always be sure to drink plenty of fluids.
