Experiencing severe abdominal pain & digestive issues? It can be a sign of Diverticulitis. Jiva Ayurveda offers holistic treatment for Diverticulitis targetting the root causes through a combination of natural therapies, lifestyle adjustments and personalised medicines under the guidance of a certified Ayurveda doctor.

What is Diverticulitis?

Diverticulitis is a health condition which leads to the emergence of little pouches known as Diverticula form inside your gastrointestinal lining and become inflamed or infected. These pouches are generally present in the bottom of your large intestine, your colon. They're common, particularly with ageing people, but they are not always problematic. However, if these pouches get inflamed, it leads to Diverticulitis.

Common Causes of Diverticulitis

Diverticulitis happens when tiny pouches in the colon known as Diverticula get inflamed or infected. Many factors could raise your risk for Diverticulitis. Knowing these might help you take preventive measures for better digestive health. Some common causes for this condition are,

Low-Fibre Diet: A reduced fibre diet is a major reason for Diverticulitis. Fibre makes stools soft and passable, lowering colon pressure. With no fibre, constipation and increased pressure result in Diverticula formation.
Ageing: The possibility of Diverticulitis rises as we grow older. The inherent strength and elasticity of the colon wall might fade with age and be subjected to Diverticula development.
Not exercising enough: Not being regularly active increases pressure on your gut and may lead to this condition.
Overweight: Excessive fat can exacerbate and induce Diverticulitis by causing the formation and inflammation of the Diverticula.
Smoking: Individuals who smoke are at increased risk for Diverticulitis than individuals who do not smoke. Smoking may weaken the colon wall and also disrupt the immune system leading to even more inflammation.
Some Medications: The frequent use of several medicines (steroids, opioids, and non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)) also raises the chance of developing Diverticulitis. These drugs affect gut flora and digestive health.
