What causes diverticulosis and diverticulitis?
It is not very clear what causes diverticula, but the medical science theory is that not eating sufficient fiber is the most
important reason for diverticular formation. Not eating adequate fiber yields a buildup of waste (constipation) in your
colon. Constipation puts extra pressure on the walls of the colon. This raised pressure causes the small pouches of the
diverticula to develop in weak areas in your colon.

Diverticulitis happens when one or more of these diverticula become inflamed or infected. The inflammation and
infection can be caused by fecal matter or bacteria becoming trapped in the diverticula.

What are the symptoms of diverticulitis?
