nswer: Dear Charles, Di-
etary fiber, also known as
roughage or bulk, includes
the parts of plant foods/carbohy-
drates that resist hydrolysis (diges-
tion) in the human body. Nutrition-
ally, fiber is classified as either
insoluble (cannot be dissolved) or
soluble (can be dissolved).

Jr

Insoluble fiber is passed
undigested to the colon
and passively attracts and
s1ells up with water. Sol-
uble fiber, on the other
hand, undergoes active
metabolic processing in
the colon in the form of
fermentation.

Together, insoluble and
soluble fiber offer the fol-
lowing health benefits:
• Help control hunger, fullness
and fat absorption;
• Provide a laxative effect by im-
proving "transit time";
• Act to "bind" lipids, resulting in
reduced blood LDL cholesterol
and harmful triglycerides;
• Help control metabolic syndrome
X and diabetes;
• Increase colon health and prevent
GI tract disorders;
• May help deter breast cancer by
decreasing circulating estrogen.
Some individuals should be cau-
tious with fiber and consult their
doctor or nutritionist.
