Fiber and constipation – connection which at the same time helps with many other conditions!
Fiber and constipation are very related, because fiber can prevent from constipation, but not just this condition, fiber can be very helpful with some others too. For example:
Why and how it’s related?
We have two types of fiber soluble and insoluble.
1. Soluble fiber attracts water and turns to gel during digestion, trapping carbohydrates and slowing absorption of glucose - Lowers variance in blood sugar levels therefore help better manage diabetes!
Soluble fiber also binds to bile acids in the small intestine, making them less likely to enter the body; this in turn lowers cholesterol levels in the blood therefore reducing the risk of heart disease!
2. Insoluble fiber speeds up the transit of foods through the digestive system and adds bulk to the stools; therefore, it is the type of fiber that helps treat constipation or diarrhea and prevents colon cancer.
3. Fiber prevents constipation, hemorrhoids and diverticulosis. (Page under construction). Because fiber binds and neutralizes many of bile acids and absorbs free water, it is beneficial to any form of Colitis, cleaning the bowels and defense them from bile acid.
4.Also fiber adds bulk to your diet, making you feel full faster - May reduce appetite=Weight management.
So, if we decide to try with this diet, which can be very colorful and tasty too, we can receive one big gift in the department of weight control.
They say "With one stone two birds", but we will let the birds alone, and take our friend the fiber and we are going to have not only two or three benefits, but with the time even many more...
