10. Broccoli

Broccoli is another healthy vegetable that can cause a build-up of gas during digestion. For this reason, it's probably best avoided by people with diverticulitis, who often report that eating broccoli uncooked worsens the effect. Plenty of vegetables are easier on digestion and less likely to cause problems. Sweet potatoes, yams, carrots, and eggplant are all good options.
