Cancer and Fiber January 26, 2002 - 1:11 AM by Dr. Gary Farr | Category:
Fiber |
Various studies have shown a correlation between a high-fiber diet and lessened cancer and heart disease risks, but at least one cancer researcher says that merely taking fiber supplements is probably a pointless proposition.10 Human studies of fiber pills and fortified cereals seem to indicate that there is more to the effect that what may be contributed by fiber itself. He thinks that there is a synergistic effect of the various components of whole foods such as fruits and vegetables.11
