Fibre

The standard North American diet is largely deficient in fibre because of the refining process. It strips the fibrous coat off of grains and removes the skins of fruits and vegetables. Thus the food becomes easier to process but deficient in fibre and nutrients. Colon cell growths, diabetes and high cholesterol are just a few of the conditions that afflict millions of people and can be helped by proper fibre intake. There are several different types of fibre each with their own health benefits.

Bran, gums and mucilages are fibres that regulate blood sugar and lower cholesterol. They also bind to toxins and waste products in the intestines, ensuring that these harmful agents pass through the digestive tract without being reabsorbed by the body.
