About 10 years ago when we were telling people saturated fat was an essential nutrient, and "low fat diets" were far from healthy, a lot of people freaked out.
Now if we start telling people that high fibre diets are are also very unhealthy, we suspect there may be some reaction.
Of well, nevermind!
You probably have been repeatedly told that fibre prevents colon and breast cancer, lowers cholesterol, reduces the risk of heart disease, regulates blood sugar, wards off diabetes, curbs the appetite, induces weight loss, cleanses the colon, arrests diarrhoea, and unplugs constipation.
