8. Living with Diverticulitis – Food Tips
For the first few days of a diverticulitis episode it’s recommended that you follow a liquid diet. This helps the bowel heal. You can consume water, broth, fruit juices without pulp, gelatin, tea and coffee (minus the dairy). Your doctor will recommend an appropriate time to reintroduce solid foods. When that time comes it’s important to avoid any foods that are high in fiber. Low-fiber options include white pasta, white rice, milk, cheese, and certain cereals.
