Jumping on the bran wagon--you know you need fiber, but how can you get what you need?
1986
Goldberg, J.R.
Dietary fiber, fast becoming a household item, comes in two main varieties: soluble and insoluble. The former fibers are those associated with a lowering of blood cholesterol; oat bran is a good source. Insoluble fibers are implicated in lower bowel health due to roughage effects. How much fiber one needs is not known. Recommendations for daily intake, food sources, and fiber content of commonly consumed complex carbohydrates are included.(jd-b)
