on 10/23/2006 Look for the low-carb, high-fiber version of some of your favorite foods. For example, tortillas are sold low carb, hi-fiber. Also many breakfast cereals have extremely high amounts of fiber in them.

on 1/25/2006 Steel cut oats and those thick Scottish oats are so nutty and delicious. Rolled wheat is great and part of the U.S. Surplus Food Program. Tough to find, though. Latest news is that whole grains won't prevent your cancer. But it still works on heart health and intestinal health.

on 1/5/2006 Years ago, I decided to aid my digestion by consuming increased quantities of fiber. Soon I became sick of oatmeal, raisin bran, mashed potatoes, and all the other usual sources. I did some research and found a very alternative fiber source -- I take a single piece of 2-ply toilet paper and dissolve it in about 8 ounces of water. This mixture can then be drank and it tastes quite delectable. The best part is that if one is making something like macaroni and cheese he or she could replace the regular water with the fiber water, and it would be even better. And don't worry about health concerns, consuming toilet paper is entirely safe.
