I was wondering what the real affects of adding fiber to your diet areI was watching a show once and a nutritionalist said that after you consume X amount of gms of fiber you can eat a choc chip cookie for example and not worry about the bad stuff in itDoes this statement hold any merit or is it completely bogus?
It forms an acidic solution in water.
the solution of AlCl3 is acidic :-)
Fiber in your diet is very beneficial to a persons health for many reasonsIt will help in moving food through the colon faster, to help protect against constipation, spastic colon, colon cancer and hemorrhoidsGet a wide variety of fiber though through a varied dietGum and pectin fiber decrease fat absorption and lower cholesterol levelsThey also slow sugar absorption which is helpful to diabeticsYeah it's good for you and a cookie after a high fiber meal probably isn't as bad for you as if you hadn't had the fiber.
