A whole bag of anything I would imagine is a bad idea for anyone. I did learn that it is often ok to have seeds (such as strawberries, blackberries, etc) for those with diverticulitis. Good news for you, I hope.

Hey Casey --- A whole bag of Spinach and Beet Greens every morning will rock your world! This my help your inflammation too Alnona.

Just be aware that both beet greens and spinach have oxalic acid which, if it builds up, can cause kidney stones. Don't overdo greens!

Thnx for all the info. I will hit up some greens this afternoon. A good dose of water should keep the back ups to a minimal. Thnx again folks...you are my lifeline.

My hubby has that and it is no fun. He has been in the hosp twice because of it. He has a severe case. I sympathize with you. Think High Fiber!
