Thank you for reading Fiber Menace, and for recommending it to your readers. Please ‘take a bite’ at its companion web site. I released the entire content of my next book — Gut Sense. It takes off on those subjects that Fiber Menace just glanced over… Hope you’ll enjoy it too!

Thank you again,

Konstantin

P.S. I am using Google Alerts to monitor anything related to fiber — it brought me to your great blog.

Great question. We will be covering it in a future blog post. Thanks for the suggestion.

You may find a lot of additional information, all negative, about fiber on my web site: http://www.FiberMenace.com

What is known, however, is that GRAIN FIBRE is full of anti nutrients (the PC way of labeling toxins). all grain fibre contains to a greater or lesser extent phytic acid - which leaches vital minerals from your body, and lectins, which attack the gut mucosa lining and makes people vulnerable to auto immune responses.

if i eat bread, i eat only unbleached traditional white bread from sour dough, the only method that eradicates these toxins.

grains came late to the human diet. in order to make them edible, they had to be processed (fermented and crushed and cooked). Also, settled living allowed this cheap, highly productive food to be used as a staple. but it was only highly productive in the sense of quantity, not quality. it could never replace an animal, which has a complete and perfect balance of nutrients. we were never adapted to the high levels of carbs they contain, nor the antinutrients.
