Phentermine

There are several kinds of insoluble dietary fiber (including the cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin) in whole grains, fruit and veggie skins, and the teensy, little hard thingees in pears. Insoluble dietary fiber is a champ at preventing constipation. It also bulks up stool and makes it softer, reducing your risk of developing hemorrhoids and lessening the discomfort if you already have them.

In the memorable words of the New England Journal of Medicine, insoluble dietary fiber acts like a “colonic broom,” stimulating intestinal contractions that move solid waste through your digestive tract. By moving food quickly through your intestines, insoluble dietary fiber may help prevent or relieve digestive disorders such as constipation or diverticulosis (infection caused by food getting stuck in small pouches in the wall of your colon).

For more than 30 years, nutrition studies and experts said that insoluble dietary fiber can also protect against colon cancer. But then in 1999 — wham! — new data from the Nurses’ Health Study at Harvard University, Brigham and Women’s Hospital, and Dana Farber Cancer Institute in Boston said, “Ooops!” According to the Nurses’ Health Study numbers, no relationship — zip, zero, zilch — exists between a high - fiber diet and the risk of colon cancer. Among the 88,757 women in the 16 - year study, the incidence of colon cancer was the same whether the women ate lots of fiber or practically none. In fact, some women who ate lots of fruit and veggies were actually at higher risk. Follow - up reports now say, “Wait, maybe we were right the first time.” You know these science folks. A “yes” today can be a “no” tomorrow.

One thing is certain — insoluble dietary fiber has no effect on your choles - terol. To bring Phentermine into the picture, you have to turn to the second kind of dietary fiber, the soluble variety.
