Download or read book Dietary Fiber in Health and Disease written by George V. Vahouny and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dietary fiber is a topic that has burgeoned from an esoteric interest of a few research laboratories to a subject of international interest. This growth has been helped by the intense public interest in the potential benefits of adding fiber to the diet. The general popularity of fiber may have been helped by the perception that, for once, medicine was saying "do" instead of "don't. " There has been a proliferation of excellent scientific books on dietary fiber. Why another? The Spring Symposium on Dietary Fiber in Health and Disease was an outgrowth of our belief that informal discussion among peers-a discussion in which fact is freely interlaced with speculation-was the most effective way to organize our knowledge and direct our thinking. The normal growth progression of a discipline inc1udes its branching into many areas. Soon the expertise, which was once general, is broken into many specialties. Intercommunication becoIlles increasingly difficult. It was our intent to provide a forum that would expose its participants to developments in areas related to their research interest. Free exchange under these conditions could not help but broaden everyone's knowl edge and expand his horizons. We feel that this symposium was singularly successful in achieving its goals. It resulted in a free and friendly exchange of knowledge and ideas. It helped to establish seeds for future collaborations based on mutual interest and friendship. The proceedings of this conference will serve as yet another basic resource in the fiber field.
Download or read book High Fiber Diet written by Health Research and published by Laurenzana Press. This book was released on 2011-09-19 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eating a diet that's rich in fiber offers a number of benefits to be aware of. First, high fiber diets tend to be superior for weight control because they help to fill you up quickly so you consume fewer calories. You also stay fully longer as your body takes a while to digest all the bulk from the fiber. High fiber diets, especially those with soluble fiber, will help to promote a healthier heart as they can help bind with bile and improve the excretion of cholesterol from the body. High fiber foods are also excellent for controlling or preventing diabetes as they'll help to keep the blood sugar levels more regulated so you don't experience highs and lows that cause a flood of insulin to come rushing into your system. Those who are suffering from constipation are often recommended to include more fiber in their diet as a natural treatment method. And these are not drab, tasteless foods. You'll be surprised by some of these selections that can liven up all your meals while providing massive health benefits. This handy pocket guide gives you 101 of the best high fiber foods, including their overall health benefits and their specific fiber benefits. Includes a shopping list that conveniently organizes them as you would find them while shopping.
Download or read book Dietary Fiber written by Marvin E. Clemens and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dietary fibers are classified into water soluble or insoluble, and most plant foods include in their composition variable amounts of a mixture of soluble and insoluble fibers. This soluble or insoluble nature of fiber is related to its physiological effects. Insoluble fibers are characterized by high porosity, low density and the ability to increase fecal bulk, and act by facilitating intestinal transit, thus reducing the exposure to carcinogens in the colon and therefore acting as protectors against colon cancer. The influence of soluble fiber in the digestive tract includes its ability to retain water and form gels as well as a role as a substrate for fermentation of colon bacteria. This book discusses the production challenges, food sources and health benefits of dietary fiber.--

This book was released on 2013-03-07 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dietary fibre is now recognized as a vital component of good daily nutrition, yet its properties and specific role in the digestive system are still being investigated. The involvement of government agencies, the food industry and health professionals - as well as public interest - make this global overview, Dietary Fibre - A Component of Food, an important contribution to the literature on the subject. The cooperation of experts from different research centers and their peer review of each other's papers enhance the value of the book, since it presents consolidated views and objective assessments on such key issues as fibre analysis and mineral bioavailability. The seventeen chapters are grouped into three sections. The background papers deal with biochemical and analytical characteristics: e.g. the physico-chemical properties of food polysaccharides and bacterial fermentation in the colon. The papers on physiological effects deal with the physiological function of dietary fibre throughout the gastrointestinal tract: its influence on protein, lipid and carbohydrate digestion and absorption and its role in bile acid metabolism and faecal bulking. The third section of papers focuses on the prevention and treatment of disease: gastrointestinal disorders, obesity, diabetes mellitus, and hyperlipidemias.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fiber is an indigestible substance found in foods. Per U.S. Dietary Guidelines, for every 1000 calories that we consume, our body needs approximately 14 grams of fiber. For people over age 50, men must include a minimum of 30 grams of fiber, and women should include a minimum of 21 grams of fiber per day in their diet. There are two types of fiber, soluble and insoluble fiber. Soluble fibers get dissolved in water, while on the other hand, insoluble fiber absorbs the water and makes a bulkier stool. Fiber plays an important role in maintaining bowel health and decreasing the chance of constipation. Thus, a diet high in fiber can easily eliminate the toxins & wastes from your body. Fiber also helps in achieving the optimum weight, lowering the cholesterol level, controlling the blood sugar levels in the body, and helping you get a longer lifespan. Beans, whole grains, brown rice, nuts, bran cereal, berries, and baked potatoes are all good sources of fiber. This book has 40 delicious high-fiber recipes that you can explore & prepare for yourself or even guests anytime you want.

Download or read book Dietary Fiber written by Luis Chel-Guerrero and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dietary fiber is a broad term that includes non-digestible complex carbohydrates, such as cellulose, hemicellulose, mucilage and colloids, like pectin, carrageenan and arabic, xanthan or guar gum. Dietary fiber is a plant basic structural factor and exists in water-soluble and non-soluble form. Soluble fiber is found in certain fruits and vegetables such as oranges, apples, bananas, broccoli and carrots. It also exists in large amounts in legumes such as peas, soybeans, lentils and beans. Secondary sources include oat bran, soybeans, nuts and seeds. Sources of insoluble fiber are whole grain foods, wheat bran, nuts and seeds. Vegetables, such as green beans, leek, cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, radish and carrot are high-fiber foods. Purported benefits of fiber include gastro-intestinal health, cardiovascular health, weight management, satiety, glycemic control and prebiotics. A wealth of information supports the American Dietetic Association position that the public should consume adequate amounts of dietary fiber from a variety of plant foods. Recommended intakes, 20-35 g/day for healthy adults and children over age 5, are not being met, because intake of good sources of dietary fiber, fruits, vegetables, whole and high-fiber grain products, and legumes are low. The importance of food fibers has led to the development of a large and potential market for fiber-rich products and ingredients and nowadays there is a trend to find new sources of dietary fiber. In recent years, dietary fiber has received increasing attention from researchers and industry due to the likely beneficial effects on the reduction of cardiovascular and diverticulitis diseases, blood cholesterol, diabetes, and colon cancer. In addition to nutritional effects, dietary fiber has functional properties such as water binding capacity and fat binding capacity. In this respect, the health benefits and physiological properties of dietary fiber are difficult to predict on the basis of their structures alone. They are predictable on the basis of physico-chemical properties such as water holding capacity, swelling, oil or fat capacity, viscosity, cation exchange capacity, bile acid capacity, particle size, et cetera So, the addition of dietary fiber to a wide range of products contributes to the development of value-added foods or functional foods that currently are in high demand. In this book the authors explore the health implications of dietary fiber and topics related to this essential nutrient, including: dietary fiber from the food industry byproducts, pectin; dietary fiber in meat products; antioxidant dietary fiber; characterization and functionality of fiber by-products; and the fibrous fraction of legumes as a potential additive in the food industry. The contributors to this volume provide an assessment of not only the impact of the biological and functional potential of different dietary fiber sources but also their health implications.--
Download or read book Fiber Fueled written by Will Bulsiewicz, MD and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2020-05-12 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The instant New York Times, USA Today, and Publisher's Weekly bestseller A bold new plant-based plan that challenges popular keto and paleo diets, from an award-winning gastroenterologist. The benefits of restrictive diets like paleo and keto have been touted for more than a decade, but as renowned gastroenterologist Dr. Will Bulsiewicz, or "Dr. B," illuminates in this groundbreaking book, the explosion of studies on the microbiome makes it abundantly clear that elimination diets are in fact hazardous to our health. What studies clearly now show--and what Dr. B preaches with his patients--is that gut health is the key to boosting our metabolism, balancing our hormones, and taming the inflammation that causes a host of diseases. And the scientifically proven way to fuel our guts is with dietary fiber from an abundant variety of colorful plants. Forget about the fiber your grandmother used to take--the cutting-edge science on fiber is incredibly exciting. As Dr. B explains, fiber energizes our gut microbes to create powerhouse postbiotics called short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) that are essential to our health. SCFAs are scientifically proven to promote weight loss, repair leaky gut, strengthen the microbiome, optimize the immune system, reduce food sensitivities, lower cholesterol, reverse type 2 diabetes, improve brain function, and even prevent cancer. Restrictive fad diets starve the gut of the critical fiber we need, weaken the microbes, and make our system vulnerable. As a former junk-food junkie, Dr. B knows firsthand the power of fiber to dramatically transform our health. The good news is that our guts can be trained. Fiber-rich, real foods--with fruits, vegetables, whole grains, seeds, nuts, and legumes--start working quickly and maintain your long-term health, promote weight loss, and allow you to thrive and feel great from the inside out. With a 28-day jumpstart program with menus and more than 65 recipes, along with essential advice on food sensitivities, Fiber Fueled offers the blueprint to start turbocharging your gut for lifelong health today.
