Key Supplements
- Fiber supplementation (psyllium husk 5-10g/day or acacia fiber—increase gradually to prevent bloating, most important for prevention)
- Probiotics 50-100 billion CFU (restore microbiome, reduce inflammation, prevent diverticulitis—Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus strains)
- L-Glutamine 5-10g/day (heals intestinal lining)
- Omega-3 4-6g/day (anti-inflammatory, reduces diverticulitis risk)
- Curcumin 500-1000mg 3x/day (anti-inflammatory)
- Aloe Vera juice 2-4 oz/day (anti-inflammatory, healing)
Key Lab Markers

- Ultrasound (if CT contraindicated—pregnancy, contrast allergy)
- Complete Blood Count (WBC elevated if infection)
- hs-CRP, ESR (inflammation markers)
