Diverticulitis is caused by eating too many acidic foods over a long period of time. What happens is the colon can no longer eliminate or absorb foods properly. Through my research I discovered that in order to heal the body - including the treatment for diverticulitis - you need to start alkalizing the body again by eating mostly alkaline foods. I also discovered that by combining certain foods when you eat, you can eliminate pain completely. Further reading can be found at: http:///www.squidoo.com/treatmentfordiverticulitispain

Is diverticulosis and diverticulotis the same things?
No. The first, diverticulosis is a condition, or disease, if you will. The second, diverticulotis, is what happens when the condition becomes active. With diverticulosis, your colon has little pouches that extend from the sides. Think of it like a long tube with little pouches protruding ever so often. Those aren't normal, but many people have them, without ever having any issues. When Diverticulotis occurs, something gets into one of the pouches and causes an infection. The cure is antibiotics. For some people, this happens too often. After the first few incidents, a Dr. may determine that it's necessary to remove the affected part of the colon.
