About half of all Americans age 60 to 80, and most people over age 80, have diverticulosis. The main cause of this common condition is a low-fiber diet. Why? Low-fiber diets may lead to constipation, which causes pressure to build-up inside the colon (also known as the large intestine).

Kefir Tolerated by Lactose-Intolerant Adults

For lactose-intolerant adults, drinking fermented milk can eliminate or drastically reduce symptoms related to lactose intolerance, according to the American Dietetic Association. Researchers believe microbes in this fermented milk -- called kefir -- possess the enzyme necessary to digest lactose. Kefir is slightly more expensive than plain milk. It tastes slightly tart and has the consistency of liquid yogurt.
