See this page on diverticulosis. I have these as well, and struggle with the same things you do.

My understanding is that you want food to move rapidly through your colon, because if it sits there it can get caught in the "pockets" and lead to diverticulitis.

Some doctors recommend staying away from nuts, seeds, popcorn, etc. - anything that can easily get caught and lead to infection.

What about higher fiber, but easier to digest foods, such as buckwheat and barley?
