Apart for taking dumps what use is fibre?

[just_a_pilgrim]

What? Please explain why pilgrim I am asking because i am curious this makes me nervous. How can you shit blood?

Always eat oatmeal for breakfast, i changed my rice from brown to white for various reasons. After a few months i wasn't getting enough fibre and noticed blood in my shit. I had this happen once before when i tried eating carbs only for breakfast and fats/proteins for the rest of the day. (sue me i like to try things so i know how i react)

As soon as i changed back to more fibreous carbs (brown rice) i was fine. I do eat vegtables every day.

I have a very fast metabilism i also eat clean if i can, which means i cannot eat clean all the time and eat maybe a fast food burger with my clean meal otherwise i just starve. My metabilism is fast from another sport i do now, i never ever had this problem when all i was doing was weights (or walking or cardio as well), even on low carbs/calories.

I'll tell you why fibrous veggies are paramount to health ...

We were not genetically engineered to use tooth paste 

The fibrous veggies that should be 2/3 of our daily intake act as a natural detrartant inside your mouth .. cleaning you teeth ... and they continue their job inside ...

On a serious note I just asked a questino about bein gconstipated in diet section. I have just uptaked my veggies even though they are yucky and after reading this I am definaetly going to watch my diet much better. I do not want this to happen to me.

fiber is essential for your gut's health...

a gastrointerologist told me once that long term deficiency in fiber dramatically increases the chance of colon cancer
its like water - you need it to stay healthy

btw, not necessarily veggies...i don't like veg and i almost don't eat any - instead i get all my fiber from bran, oats, etc...works just as well

  Besides all the obvious it creates a proper invirement in which to obsorb your food ! The removal of toxins ( which convert to estrogen i might add is also VERY benificial  ) it also plays a role in the control of blood sugar ect ect ! it in fact could be the most important supplement you can take !
