    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

    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 😮

    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.
