Hi. I’m happy to see all your posts, I was looking for some advice. Apologies for gramma errors, English isn’t my native language. I’m 58 diagnosed with diverticulosis, seen in colonoscopy, not big changes. This year I had 4-5 flares. Shivers, fever first day, pain 7-14 days, painful cramps. Sharing some tips and happy to see your comments. 1- IF fasting. I started Intermittent Fasting a few months ago. Last meal at 6 PM first 10-11 AM. It gives time guts to heal and clean. First tea morning is camomile. 2. Before meals I eat Psyllium Hust tablets from H &B 3. During flares and up to month after I’m taking DEBUTIR please google. This is a Polish drug containing butric acid. Healing guts. Probably there are some equivalents in the UK but that one works for me. 4. Physical activity - Pilates , joga, cycling. 5. So far I avoid antibiotics because it destroys gut bacteria. During pain treatment I’m taking Berberine 500 mg x 2 per day 5 eating a lot of vegetables, fermented food, kombucha, yogurt. Im trying to eat slow, bring food to liquid consistency in the mouth. 6. Learning what activate flare - spicy food, too much garlic, too much brassica plants in one meal, red vine 😥. seeds are ok
