Review Quotes

"This book was just what I needed when I was diagnosed with diverticulitis. My health care providers were not very specific about how to go about recovering...This author has a step by step guide on how to structure recovery and also prevention for future flare ups. The dietary guide and menus (and shopping lists) are very helpful. Thank you to Karyn Sunohara, RD. Excellent work!" -- Amazon customer
