The article presents a modern description of the phenotypes of diverticular disease.<\/p>\n

The risk factors of diverticular disease, the features of the course of the disease and the ethical role of the intestinal microbiota are highlighted.<\/p>\n

The feasibility of using probiotics and metabiotics based on short-chain fatty acids, butyrate and inulin in the treatment of diverticular disease is substantiated.<\/p>\n

Key words:<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0diverticular disease, microbiota, probiotics, metabiotics<\/p>\n
