I tried vegetarian and my biweekly episodes did not let up. After two years, I was desperate and went carnivore. My diverticulitis immediately went into remission. It’s now been thirteen months and no episodes have occurred.
I can't eat eggs anymore,goes right thru me,was just diagnosed with diverticulitis n don't know what to eat anymore.Seems like everything blows my stomach up ridiculously. Just had surgery for giant kidney stones, n had no idea about the diverticulitis till I saw another dr.You would have thought with all the scans I've had in two years n my complaints about the pain it would have been diagnosed sooner.I was told it was fatty liver n possibly an ulcer .Its been two months since getting rid of the stones so I know that particular pain is gone.Id like to know why Dr's can't be more helpful in telling you what foods to eat for certain ailments. Thank God for the Dr's on utube.Im 77 n I remember years n years ago the Dr's actually had certain diets for different ailments n would make a copy for you to follow.
I'm 64 and just had a flare up that I think was triggered by NSAIDS I took for a bad tooth ache. I was thinking, if my old dog presented the kind of pain I was in, I would have put him out of his misery. No such luck for humans.
I'm 68 and recently had diverticulitis. I've never known pain like it & I've had two kids. Luckily they gave me Oramorph every two hours. codeine didn't touch the pain.
Good information especially work out your food intolerances. I have had diverticuli for many years and several bouts of diverticulitis. Reducing plant foods, particularly leaves and flowers eg broccoli, cauliflower, other brassicas, spinach etc as well as many fruits and all grains reduced my inflammation. I can immediately tell now when my gut is inflamed…discomfort, pain, stool changes etc. Small amount of gluten free oats the other day caused a 3 day upset 😮
I learned the hard way 😢,I stopped taking my arthritis Medicine 2 months ago and 2 days ago I passed something that went thud! and immediately my gut went down and I feel better but I googled it and now I'm eating the food I should 😢 I have heartburn and I have to go to my Dr office and tell her what happened to me 🤷🏽♂️ I can't believe If I hadn't stopped taking my arthritis Medicine NSAIDS 2 months ago I'd probably have my colon messed up.Thank GOD 🙏🏽
if you want to try what 100% worked for me , buy some benefiber at Walmart or drugstores . I'm not in any discomfort anymore and now having daily bowel movements. My daughter is a R.N. and told me to take it. as a rule i take it twice a day sometimes one time a day. i have no problems eating what i want. i do stay away from super spicy foods.
Great informative and very easy to follow video. Thank you. I have IBS as well as diverticulosis. Tomato pips were found in the pouches of my diverticulitis because I used to eat them constantly. I recently found that salads, coleslaw and uncooked veg irritate and cause acid reflux. 🙁. I'm not enjoying food anymore but have found relief in Slippery Elm Root and freshly squeezed celery juice. Please can you do the roughage video and try to include these two possible treatments. I'm curious if they can cause harm.
Hi, thanks for that. I have DD, IBD, NAFLD, and I truly belive that I am where I am at 47 because of ignoring what my body says it is sensitive to for my entire life and being inactive for the last 10 yrs and a greedy sod. If only there was a basic food sensitivity test for everyone as they turn adults then they would never put themselves through the pain I suffer on the regular.

So many of us are suffering from some form of IBS or another. Mine is relatively mild compared to many out there, but years of struggling to find what causes my bloating. Almonds (with the skin), corn, and bread have been proven, though a little sour dough is tolerated. Just been diagnosed with a diverticula, no symptoms. I would think that psyllium husk, (pure fibre) with bentonite, which I use occasionally during water fasts, might benefit us on a limited, more regular basis. Moving to a more carnivore, low carb diet has improved my symptoms, by the way.

@@julielittle3820 I would say that it definitely doesn't help, as for the cause I also guess it played its part, I've stopped certain pain meds since reading they can make it worser. Straining when going to the toilet definitely makes it's worse too..
I just had my first episode a little over a week ago the emergency room doctor after doing the CT scan with contrast walked in and said have you been eating a lot of nuts or seeds which I have been eating a lot of peanuts & pumpkin seeds. I also had up taking Advil one a day for the past few days for some joint pain which he also said do not do so far. Those are my triggers. I don’t believe nuts don’t cause flareups. They sure did for me!
I have been eating a very uninflamitory diet for over 3 years. I eat meat eggs some non starchy veggies. I can now eat nuts and seeds without any problem. I think my system has finally healed enough to not get pain from eating what they say you can't. I don't over eat any of the foods that used to make me have a flairup.
I ended up in the hospital with complicated diver after consuming a lot of popcorn five years ago. After several years of illness, I had a colon resection and had 21 inches removed. My quality of life improved immensely. That being said, I have pan colonic diverticula and worry about it coming back. How can I keep that from happening?
Thank you l have diverticulitis and inflammation and get a lot of flare up s and cramps and diarrhea and bloating and at times some bleeding l need help
I have Chronic Kidney disease for 20 years plus and in the last year suffered with diverticulitis. I believe because of the dialysis diet which consists of very little fibre and restricted water in take that I developed diverticulitis. For the past 8 months I've been suffering with severe pain although I've had two lots of antibiotics during that time. What advice can you give me?
Thank you for the video I've had diverticulitis attacks often on for years and I'm beginning to realize that everybody has their own trigger if you can find out what triggers your diverticulitis.
Do a video on fiber and the different types of fiber. How about probiotics do they have a beneficial effect. And what about fermented foods do they improve the situation.
I just got diagnosed with diverticulitis and I am disapointed. I don't really know what to eat and not to eat? I was told to eat low fat or nonfat food and to eat my stuff as bland as possible. I had really bad diarrhea. And before I had cronic constipation I worry about having to have surgery. I don't want to wear a bag if I had surgery.
My mother is doing much better drinking marshmallow and wild yam root herbal tea to reduce inflammation. For constipation try, slippery Elm or castor oil. Drinking tons of water to soften the stool helps. She's also getting relief from eating watermelon, honey dew melons, and smoothies. My mother seems to feel better when she eating plant base. The stomach doesn't work as hard digesting fruits and vegetables compared to meat. If you're constipated, meat is way more toxic sitting in your digestive tract than fruits or vegetables. If you get your nutrition from fruits and vegetables it's way easier to create bowel movement when you flush your system with water or green juices. To reduce the chances to infecting the DV it's important to have bowel movements daily. Avoid black tea and caffeine. The two best herbal teas for diverticulitis are: marshmallow and wild yam root. Exercise will also help create bowel movements. I bought, smoothies for diverticulitis on Amazon for my mother. Don't stop drinking water. You could add lemon to it, or add flavor to it with watermelon. I hope this helps.
Hi , through to my experience, its better to be easy on your meal when it's flare up for at least 24hours with very light and soft food, the kind of that hospital give to the patient. There is a very good information on the internet about the right diet for diverticulitis. Ask your GP to print it out for you . Or see the dietician. Most of the patients don't need any surgery. All the best of health.
I am doing better as far as functioning but I know I'm still not right where I should be. I am confused and frustrated because I either am one way or the other. I either get diarrhea or constipation or keep going back one way or the other. I see a Gastronologlist on October 31st 2024. Then I have been under stress because I got these letters from my health insurance. And they said my doctors wouldn't be in network with my insurance plan. So I would have to pay the remaining doctor bills. Then I have hypothyroidism is what was the start of all of these problems. And made the problems I have worse. I'm surprised I am still alive but these problems are scaring me to death. Because I use to be healthier.@@AdrianRyz
One thing I have not heard mentioned is dairy. I experienced what I believe was a diverticulitis flare after adding dairy to a daily diet for 4 days in a row that I don’t normally eat. There was a stress factor also, so I just wondered if the added dairy could have contributed.
Very confusing. He kept saying it all depends on your body. try this try that, eat nuts don't eat nuts, high fiber low fiber, eat meat don't eat meat. Lots of talk and no solution.
He specifically said there is no single solution. And not enough research yet so you do need to be mindful of what you're eating and if you have similar symptoms after digesting those ingredients. I suspected nuts for myself, for example. I stopped eating them for a while. But I love cashews. So now I try chewing them to a pulp before I swallow and it seems to be less problematic for me.
I would love a deeper dive into fiber. I had diverticulitis in 2017. Worst pain of my life except for a migraine I had a few years earlier where I actually thought death would be better 😢 And I've given birth which hurt so much. Any way, I have been eating mostly whole food plant based since 2017 and haven't had a diverticulitis attack since. But I also quit smoking in 2020. Maybe it's both. I'm not Inuit heritage and also had high cholesterol in 2017. I didn't remember how high but I was prescribed statins I never took because I thought I could control with diet. I've also been told by every doctor I've been to since that I need to avoid nuts and seeds which I ignored because I knew the new research showed no connection with diverticulitis. My total cholesterol is way low.. 150. I would love an in depth dive into fiber and who is benefitted and who is not
While I admire your video and your dedication we really didn’t learn anything. We learned what we thought that nobody really knows what causes any of this and how to treat it Other than surgical intervention
Thank you as I had a really bad experience the other night and I’m not sure why but I get nauseous and then the pain is so cruel and I begin vomiting. I don’t smoke or drink alcohol as I quit almost a year ago I drink 2 litres of water a day but still struggling to lose weight. I exercise more and have been plant based for 3 years so I don’t know what I’m doing wrong? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you for your wonderful videos
I bar mix my food to extract more nutrician. I enjoy chewing food thoroughly but it slows my bowel movements in comparison. Roughage is needed to clean the bowels but so is good hydration. Slow bowel is also caused by too much sitting while driving a car long distances. Toxic build up maybe. Inflammation seems likely.
What about milk?? I’ve had my husband on low fiber and bland for almost 6 weeks since ct scan revealed a small tear. Scramble eggs, white toast, peeled boiled potatoes, bone broth soup, and low sugar protein drinks-plus a glass of 1% milk with each meal. He still feels pain in the area of the year, and this morning he says it’s even worse than usual
My husband did only liquids the first week after being diagnosed with a small perforation. The PA we saw in the ER said protein drinks were also ok, but no milk the first week. We’re now on week 5 of bland, low fiber foods. Breakfast: Scrambled eggs cooked with a few drops of vegetable oil and salt, boiled and peeled white potatoes browned in the air fryer, dry white toast, and 2~now 1-percent milk Lunch: 2 or 3 protein drinks, 2 slices of bread, a banana, and water Dinner: Soup/either chicken or beef, peeled carrots, either pasta or peeled potatoes, slice of white toast, and a glass of milk Breakfast and lunch have been pretty much the same. To vary dinners a bit, I’ve added mashed potatoes and gravy, green beans and chicken
I have food allergies all my life. I never had a test to see exactly what all I cannot ingest though. I smoke, like a wild fire. I was able to understand that my negative emotional reaction to experiences often activated an "Diver-attack". I never use hard pain reliever, narcotics or opiodes. I feel it was the unknown food allergies, teamed up with high stress factors, and a low emotional IQ kept the suffering on-going. I do have a doctor, that I do not fully trust, which led me to investigate for myself. Bran flakes almost kills me! I stopped all fried foods, dairy consumption, began to take Apple Cider Vinegar tablets. The attacks are fewer and farer between. I also increased my emotional IQ by unburdening myself with outdated thought patterns.
I have this same disease, it flared up after a kidney stone was dissolved & the dentist pulled my teeth in preparation for dentures. What do you suggest I can eat with only being able to gum food?
Hi, I'm in need of information about diverticulitis surgery. I have doctor's that tell me to eat more fiber but when I do I get more flare ups. I can't enjoy salads or wheat bread. I do have to say I have suffered with constipation for as long as I can remember. Has anyone have had surgery because I'm being referred to it but I'm scared because I differ constipation and don't know if I will keep having issues with diverticulitis. Please help

My mother always had problems eating eggs. She was never diagnosed with diverticulitis. Now that I have been diagnosed with Diverticulitis. I too can’t eat eggs .
I think if you do spinach,and plants should be blended in a green juice,no diary or meat,for me baby food diet,meditation and green juice and nutrients and a parasite cleanse,and walking in nature to give the body a reset,avoid acidic foods,glutamine,aloe Vera juice,slippery elm and marshmallow root.let the gut heal and do night castor oil packs.you will heal
Me too no pork no salad with steak I had my ninth attack last week. I was in the hospital for seven days and I'm home and I feel like crap. I'm on antibiotics by mouth they make me sick. I couldn't get the port in my arm for the IV antibiotics this time got infected, got another one put in and it bled so they had to take that out ,which last year I came home with antibiotics by IV and I'm very very very tired and very very emotional from this and does anybody else suffer that? Since they know the correlation between the gut and the brain, I'm afraid this is really depressing!! The pain and lethargic feeling I will get surgery probably in a month or so have to follow up with my surgeon since I had so many attacks where I could risk a preforation.
Ive been told by one Dr, dont eat nuts...... And another Dr told me nuts are fine, the old no nuts idea is incorrect..... So much conflicting info out there

My triggers seem to be strawberries (little seed on the outside of them), maybe alcohol with a fatty prime rib; and capers do it to me every time.
Yes video on fiber
Lots of people have there own trigger foods I find. I know of 5 things that trigger me. Chewing your food well and lots of water are benifical factors
I have diverticulitis
My question is do I eat fiber or not
Google it 😁
Liquid diet for the first two days let your bowel rest and get your bowel moving again. Yes eat fiber and drink lots of water to avoid flare ups
@@AdrianRyz I'm On my 3rd day liquid diet and Omeprazole is helping with the antibiotics.feel better now, Careful with the NSAIDS.
My husband did only liquids the first week after being diagnosed with a small perforation. The PA we saw in the ER said protein drinks were also ok, but no milk the first week. We’re now on week 5 of bland, low fiber foods.
Breakfast: Scrambled eggs cooked with a few drops of vegetable oil and salt, boiled and peeled white potatoes browned in the air fryer, dry white toast, and 2~now 1-percent milk
Lunch: 2 or 3 protein drinks, 2 slices of bread, a banana, and water
Dinner: Soup/either chicken or beef, peeled carrots, either pasta or peeled potatoes, slice of white toast, and a glass of milk
Breakfast and lunch have been pretty much the same. To vary dinners a bit, I’ve added mashed potatoes and gravy, green beans and chicken
Audio fades alot
Thanks for the feedback @explorerny1
I actually thought it was my phone...
I have food allergies all my life. I never had a test to see exactly what all I cannot ingest though. I smoke, like a wild fire. I was able to understand that my negative emotional reaction to experiences often activated an "Diver-attack". I never use hard pain reliever, narcotics or opiodes. I feel it was the unknown food allergies, teamed up with high stress factors, and a low emotional IQ kept the suffering on-going. I do have a doctor, that I do not fully trust, which led me to investigate for myself. Bran flakes almost kills me! I stopped all fried foods, dairy consumption, began to take Apple Cider Vinegar tablets. The attacks are fewer and farer between. I also increased my emotional IQ by unburdening myself with outdated thought patterns.
I have this same disease, it flared up after a kidney stone was dissolved & the dentist pulled my teeth in preparation for dentures. What do you suggest I can eat with only being able to gum food?
Hi, I'm in need of information about diverticulitis surgery. I have doctor's that tell me to eat more fiber but when I do I get more flare ups. I can't enjoy salads or wheat bread. I do have to say I have suffered with constipation for as long as I can remember. Has anyone have had surgery because I'm being referred to it but I'm scared because I differ constipation and don't know if I will keep having issues with diverticulitis. Please help
Thanks
Very interested in understanding fiber better - I mostly eat high fiber keto and it seems that diverticulitis keeps rearing its ugly head!

I think if you do spinach,and plants should be blended in a green juice,no diary or meat,for me baby food diet,meditation and green juice and nutrients and a parasite cleanse,and walking in nature to give the body a reset,avoid acidic foods,glutamine,aloe Vera juice,slippery elm and marshmallow root.let the gut heal and do night castor oil packs.you will heal
I find I need to drink 2 bottles of water to fix my problems. On a bad day I also eat 6 prunes.
watch Dr, Berg on Diverticulitis and grass fed red meat...he has an awesome video on the subject.
Allergies to pork food to me is what triggers my attacks.
Allergies trigger your diverticulitis attacks?
They do
@@DaveOriginallyfromBrooklyn they do
Me too no pork no salad with steak I had my ninth attack last week. I was in the hospital for seven days and I'm home and I feel like crap. I'm on antibiotics by mouth they make me sick. I couldn't get the port in my arm for the IV antibiotics this time got infected, got another one put in and it bled so they had to take that out ,which last year I came home with antibiotics by IV and I'm very very very tired and very very emotional from this and does anybody else suffer that? Since they know the correlation between the gut and the brain, I'm afraid this is really depressing!! The pain and lethargic feeling I will get surgery probably in a month or so have to follow up with my surgeon since I had so many attacks where I could risk a preforation.
Pork is so Random, to me? I’d avoid red meat. Harder to digest. Seems more fish, steamed veggies, watermelon-cooling foods.
I did a juice fast and they came out of me
You speak about men with diverticulitis. What about women?
Put your camera higher, it bothers me when you talk when your chin is up higher & I see more of your throat.
Too many ads, and it takes a long time to get to a point
My doctor said don't eat nuts.
Deez Nuts?
Too much talk so what foods I should eat
Hi you can get the list here: www.dietvsdisease.com/fodmap-food-list?
I really didn’t understand nothing.😊
Sounds to me like your not sure of anything,
Ive been told by one Dr, dont eat nuts...... And another Dr told me nuts are fine, the old no nuts idea is incorrect..... So much conflicting info out there
Unfortunately you speak much too quickly for us seniors with hearing problems combined with your accent makes it difficult to understand what you’re saying
Change your microphone ,your voice is not clear.
Your microphone is very bad. Hard to listen to your voice.
