Controversal: I still tell patient s with known diverticular disease to avoid nuts, seeds, popcorn but younger doctors seem to cite the more recent literature stating seeds etc do not increase risk of developing diverticulitis. I am old fashioned in that sense and still advise avoidance of those foods.
