Keep taking your bran
1979
M. A. Eastwood and his colleagues conclude that coarse bran is the best agent for treating diverticular disease of the colon. This group studied the effect of coarse bran, ispaghula, and lactulose on stool weight, transit, and motility. Although all three agents did relieve symptoms, their effects on colon function differed. Only ispaghula significantly increased stool weight and only bran significantly reduced transit time. Ispaghula significantly increased motility whereas bran and lactulose had no effect.
