Diverticulitis is a condition that occurs when small pouches (diverticula) that form in the walls of the large intestine become inflamed or infected. Diverticulitis can be a painful condition, and it can lead to a number of complications, including bleeding, perforation, and abscess formation. The low-FODMAP diet is a diet that is low in fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides, and polyols. These are types of carbohydrates that are difficult to digest and can trigger symptoms of diverticulitis. The low-FODMAP diet has been shown to be effective in reducing symptoms of diverticulitis and improving quality of life in people with the condition.
