Alternative Treatment & Prevention of Diverticulitis

Prevention

While there is no absolutely certain way to prevent the development of diverticula, it is believed that high fiber diets may help. Foods that are recommended for their high fiber content include whole grain breads and cereals, and all types of fruits and vegetables. Most experts suggest that individuals take in 20–35 grams of fiber daily. If this is not possible to achieve through diet, an individual may supplement with fiber products that are mixed into juice or water.
