explain something to me. i don't get it.

some say parasites cause diverticulitis. other say, no eating habits, infection, stress, etc.

so why can't you take parasite treatment if you have diverticulosis?

i tried it and had horrible pain, cramping, nausea and the diverticulitis flared up big time.

how can you treat parasites if it causes such severe symptoms??

You can't. Some people simply cannot tolerate certain herbs. I am one of them.

Maybe prescription meds would be OK for you??

I have never read anywhere that diverticulosis was caused by parasites. What I have always read is that it is caused by eating a low fiber diet, like the American diet.

Non-industrialized countries have very little diverticulosis to this day. That's because they are still eating a high fiber diet.

And, it wasn't around before we started refining grain--making white flour. When we took away the fiber, we got this problem.

Search the web. That's what all the sites say.
