What Is Diverticulitis?

When the lower bowel expands in width, for example with chronic constipation, pressure may build up and weaken the areas of the muscular walls which then bulge out into pouches, named diverticula.  If these pouches  become inflammed or infected this is called diverticulitis.

Inflammation may begin when bacteria or stool are caught in the diverticula.

Avoidance of nuts, popcorn, sunflower, pumpkin, caraway and sesame seeds has been recommended by physicians out of fear that particles could enter, block or irritate the diverticula (but no scientific evidence supports this). *

To quote the NHS website “infection is usually caused by a piece of stool getting trapped.  The bacteria in the stool quickly multiplies and spreads, causing an infection to occur.” **

Symptoms of diverticulitis include a sharp pain in the lower left abdomen, along with fever and constipation, or diarrhoea.

Comments:-

We have heard that Linseed Seeds can help with diverticulitis - to quote M’s experience:

“I am taking Linseed (not the oil but the seeds) also sold in packets marketed as Linusit. 

One heaped large spoon each morning at breakfast with cereal, porridge etc.  You MUST drink at least half a glass of water when taking the seeds.  We have just been away for a short break at Christmas and I always get a mild attack of diverticulitis on any trip away from home, but this year I was fine.  I have also found that my IBS has virtually gone.  I would like everyone who suffers from this compaint t know about this linseed as it is so cheap to buy”
