What are Diverticulitis and Diverticulosis?

Diverticulosis occurs when small pouches, known as diverticula, form along the walls of the colon. While often symptom-free, these pouches can become inflamed or infected, leading to a condition called Diverticulitis. Symptoms of diverticulitis include abdominal pain, bloating, constipation, diarrhoea, and, in severe cases, fever and nausea. Proper nutrition is essential in managing diverticulosis, reducing the risk of diverticulitis, and promoting overall gut health. With the right guidance, you can take control of your digestive well-being.

Are You Concerned About Managing Diverticulitis or Diverticulosis?

Living with diverticulosis or recovering from diverticulitis can feel overwhelming, particularly when it comes to understanding dietary changes. You may be unsure about which foods to eat during a flare-up or how to adjust your fibre intake to prevent future issues. With professional support, you can navigate these challenges confidently and improve your digestive health.
