[|Diverticulitis Diet] [|Shane's works cited.doc]

This is a diagram of diverticulitis. It shows bleeding on the internal part of the colon. Also it shows some diverticula, one is inflamed. Before you get the progressed form a more mild form occurs and it can be treated with a simple change in diet. If not changed the the advanced form could take effect and a change in diet won't usually help. Surgery is needed to completely sove the problem.
