The fiber-fat connection you shouldn’t ignore

You’re doctor has probably asked you whether you’re getting enough fiber in your diet. You’re especially likely to have answered this question if you’ve ever had a colonoscopy.

That’s because getting enough fiber is very important to the health of your colon…

It keeps everything moving, brushes out the bad stuff that gets trapped in the pockets of your colon and generally keeps you from getting clogged up.

But, according to new research, getting enough fiber in your diet is vital for another reason… One your doctor probably never even mentioned…

At birth your body’s pH is balanced. But starting immediately acid waste builds up and starts to shift your pH level from healthy alkaline to unhealthy acid. If your body is too acidic it provides the right terrain for germs to thrive. To add insult to injury… MORE⟩⟩

Two separate studies, one important conclusion

Two independent studies were conducted on the effect of eating fiber on mice – one at Georgia State University’s Center for Inflammation Immunity & Infection and the other at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden.

Both studies started by feeding a group of mice a diet that was extremely low in fiber. And, in both studies, the low-fiber diets rapidly led to weight gain, high blood sugar and insulin resistance in the mice.

The Swedish study also found that mice developed problems with the protective mucus layer in their colons after just 3-7 days of eating the low-fiber diet: this mucus layer became more penetrable – which can activate the immune system and inflammation, resulting in diseases like ulcerative colitis.

Taking it a step further, the Georgia State study also observed that the colons of mice on the low-fiber diet shrank significantly in thickness.

Also, not only did large amounts of gut bacteria die off after the mice ate a low-fiber diet, the mice developed unhealthy imbalances of different gut bacteria strains — a factor that has already been linked to obesity in numerous studies.

These studies make it clear that if you’re not getting enough fiber in your diet, you’re setting yourself up for weight gain.
