Diverticulosis Diet Book: An Easy to Follow Cookbook for Every Stage of Diverticulosis. Includes 50+ Recipes for You.

A condition called diverticulosis, which is not uncommon for women over 50 (though men are at greater risk), can lead to trouble. With this condition, small pouches diverticula form in the colon (or intestinal) wall. And this can increase your risk of a painful bout of diverticulitis an infection or inflammation of the pouches. But only a small number of people with diverticulosis have diverticulitis. Diverticulosis is when pockets called diverticula form in the walls of your digestive tract. The inner layer of your intestine pushes through weak spots in the outer lining. This pressure makes them bulge out, making little pouches. Most often it happens in your colon, the lower part of your large intestine.Diverticulosis is common in people over age 60. It doesn't happen often to those younger than 30. Experts think the pouches show more with age. Men might get it more than women. Research shows the condition might be genetic. That means you're more likely to get it if your parents or any of your brothers or sisters have it.
