Why is dietary fiber so important?
Dietary fiber activates intestinal functions and allows harmful and undesirable substances to leave the body quickly. As a result, plays a defensive role against certain diseases. In 1977, American Senate nourishment special committee published a report that states the shortage of fiber in eating habits is one of the reasons that adult diseases (obesity, constipation, heart sickness, diabetes, cancer, gallstones, hemorrhoids) are increasing.
