Health, laxation, and food habit influences on fiber intake of older women
1980
Estimated fiber content and related factors of the diets of 59 older women were investigated by dietary history and questions about functional health and laxation. Fiber intakes varied from 3 to 33 gm per day, with a mean of 14. In most of the women, this was adequate for normal laxation, although the ones who used laxatives regularly had intakes below 12 gm per day. Factors limiting dietary fiber intakes were food preferences and poor health.
