It’s the parts of fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts and legumes that can’t be digested. Fiber doesn’t contain calories or nutrients, and it isn’t found in meats or dairy products. But it’s absolutely necessary for total health. You must have both soluble and insoluble fiber in your diet for optimum health. Insoluble fiber is a course, chewy material that will not dissolve in water. It’s what we think of as roughage. It holds water in the colon or large intestine, and decreases the time it takes for materials to move through the colon (transit time). This is extremely important because it helps sweep out the toxins that have accumulated in your colon from undigested and unabsorbed foods. And fast elimination of waste and toxins from your system is a key to overall health. Soluble fibers dissolve in water to aid in making elimination smoother and more regular. In addition, soluble fiber aids the body in maintaining healthy cholesterol levels and breaking down food to make nutrients more readily available. Adding BioFiber to your Diet Will Make you Look and Feel Better! BioFiber helps tone and strengthen your entire gastrointestinal system. The added ingredient of FOS (fructooligosaccharides), encourages the growth of "friendly" intestinal bacteria and helps you digest and assimilate food more efficiently. BioFiber will aid in removing toxins from your colon – toxins that contribute to chronic health and skin problems. And once your body rids itself of toxins that have been sitting in your colon for some time, you’ll feel lighter, energized and rejuvenated! An Added
