* [[Probiotics]] : A daily dose of probiotics including L. casei [[Lactobacillus Casei]] helps keep the intestines healthy, controlling diverticulitis and reducing symptoms of the disease, reports the University of Maryland Medical Center.
* The best way to avoid developing diverticulosis in the first place is by eating a proper healthy diet with plenty of fiber. A diet high in fiber keeps the bowels moving, keeps the pressure within the colon within normal limits, and slows or stops the formation of diverticula.
* liquid diet (fastening) until all painful symptoms have subsided.
