Is it true that diverticulosis can be cured with high fiber dietary?

May help: Diverticulitis is an active infection in small pouches on the colon & needs antibiotics for treatment & bland liquid diet during the infection. Diverticulosus is small colon pouches that are not infected & eating a high fiber diet can help prevent episodes of diverticulitis infection from occurring.

Helped, not cured.: While a high fiber diet will reduce the complications of diverticulosis (infection and bleeding), it will not cure the actual condition of diverticulosis, i.e. make the outpouchings of the large intestines go away.
