If you have infected diverticula, it often needs treatment with antibiotics and pain pills. While clearing up the infection, you should be eating a low-fiber diet.

Things you SHOULD eat while clearing up the infection are:
1. White Rice
2. Pasta
3. White fish
4. Chicken
5. A few cooked fruits and vegetables

STAY AWAY FROM WHOLE GRAINS DURING THIS TIME.

Things you should AVOID while clearing up the infection are:
1. Vegetables and fruit with seeds (tomatoes, courgettes, marrows, grapes)
2. Gas-inducing vegetables (brussels sprouts, cabbages, beans/lentils)


Once the infection is cleared up....slowly build up the fiber in your diet.
