As medical remedies go, red wine and olive oil consumption is one I’ll indulge in even without the benefits.

I’ve also found that regular consumption of yogurt with live and active cultures has reduced my diverticulitis from 6 times per year to never.

cut out any and all wheat for a month and see if that does anything for you too.

I did and it changed my life completely. No more joint pain, no more severe stomach heartburn and indigestion. And dropped 4 inches in pants waist sizes

“regular consumption of yogurt with live and active cultures”

Is there a way around eating yogurt, e.g., supplements, to get the same benefits? I know it’s good for you, but it’s the one thing that triggers my gag reflex and I couldn’t possibly eat it. (When DH eats it, I have to go to another room because of the smell.) I would love to have the benefits, though.

“regular consumption of yogurt “

Love yogurt and have made it for years.

Viili yogurt is my current favorite, no equipment needed.
Sometimes called countertop or room temperature yogurt.

Once the starter is at full strength after a few generations.
Just mix two spoons full and set out overnight, then refrigerate, eat...

After fighting a weight problem for years, I finally listened to my internist. She said: 16 grams of carbohydrates a day, and subtract a gram for every gram of fiber. My weight has dropped steadily. I'm going for my weight when I was in my 20s.

I said to my wife: "I wish she had told me this when I first went to her." My wife replied" She did. You just didn't listen to her." She was right.
