- agumonkey 8y agoSubpar health. I'm no specialist but fiber is said to feed beneficial bacterias in your lower intestines. This has a dual effect: - if not fed right, these bacteria may consume gut mucus, causing inflammation - when fed right, they actually improve digestion efficiency thus, in theory, proper diet can get you from chronic diseased [with the usual western medicine prescriptions] to healthier+more energetic
- tapland 8y agoJust the last six months or so I've seen educated people posting in my feeds about how fiber might just be included in foods that are beneficial, with fiber itself not being so. Well, not that it matters for me since I have Crohn's and can't really eat fiber at all.
