Following a horrid first bout of Diverticulitis and then an early relapse from eating some raw cruciferous veggies,. I began a FODMAP diet plan. I kept a daily diary of food intake for 2 1/2 months and used the "bottom up" approach which proved effective for me. Re-introducing raw vegetables into my diet was the scariest and longest effort for me. Each of us is uniquely different and our symptoms and problematic food groups will differ as well. I'm just glad my research led me to have discovered a FODMAP diet which worked well for me.

I was on a raw vegan diet for 9 months. No one says you need to take certain supplements with it so you’re not depleted of important flora in your gut to digest it all.

A functional health chiropractor helped me rebuild the flora in my stomach with FODMAP , which helped somewhat, and GI supplements. I was not in a good place and he saved my life.

He has retired and I’m looking for a new functional health doc who does not prescribe drugs. I have other health issues and react to certain drugs.
