A member asked:
Is cornbread bad for diverticulitis?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Probably ok: True acute diverticulitis is an infection requiring antibiotics for treatment. During acute diverticulitis one may be directed to eat lighter, smaller, softer, low fiber foods. As the infection resolves, eventually a high fiber diet would then be recommended to help prevent recurrences. Corn bread by itself, in moderation, should have no affect on diverticulitis. Drink plenty water too.

No: There are no dietary restrictions with diverticulosis. Old wive's tale. You may eat, berries, seeds, nuts, popcorn, etc.
