Fiber for Health
Fiber works complimentarily as a weight loss aid and health protector.
There’s an obvious link between high fiber diets and diabetes prevention because diabetes is characterized by an ability to properly process blood sugar levels.
Not only does weight loss itself lower your diabetes risk, there’s also evidence that diets rich in high fiber whole grains also reduce your chances of getting it.
Researches show that fiber is protective against heart disease.
According to a Harvard study of 40,000 subjects eating a lot of fiber is associated with a 40 percent lower heart disease risk compared to low fiber intake.
Soluble fibers especially lower blood cholesterol level.
That’s one reason why oatmeal is such a fine breakfast choice; it’s one of the few grains with more soluble than unsalable fiber, so it’s simultaneously an effective cholesterol flowerer, digestion slower and energy booster.
And don’t look fiber’s gastrointestinal benefits. It helps you avoid intestinal inflammation and is well known for its ability to relieve or prevent constipation.
Fiber, especially wheat bran and oat bran, seems to work best.
But a high fiber diet in general is the surest way to get all these benefits.
