What is Diverticulitis - PLUS what to eat to beat or treat it!

from Nutrition Science Bites with Professor Clare Collins AO

In this episode, Prof Clare Collins and Ilyse Jones discuss diverticulitis, a common gastrointestinal condition, particularly as you age. They explore its causes, symptoms, and the importance of dietary management. The conversation emphasises the need for medical advice and the role of fiber in both acute flare-ups (where fibre intake is reduced) and prevention (where fibre needs to be high). They also discuss the stigma around talking about bowel health with healthcare professionals.No Money No Time: What’s the difference between Diverticulitis and Diverticulosis? …and do you need a special diet?https://nomoneynotime.com.au/hacks-myths-faqs/whats-the-difference-between-diverticulitis-and-diverticulosis-and-do-you-need-a-special-dietNo Money No Time: How what you eat can help manage constipation https://nomoneynotime.com.au/hacks-myths-faqs/finding-relief-can-diet-improve-constipationCheck Your Alcohol intake here: https://auditscreen.org/check-your-drinkingTo access the Healthy Eating Quiz: Click on the top right hand 'green button' called 'How healthy is my diet' https://nomoneynotime.com.au/Want a more Personalised Food, Nutrient Assessment Report?
