The main function of the front shell (commonly known as the front shell)
Increase and soften the volume of feces (water absorption and expansion; Degraded by microorganisms in the colon)
After absorbing water, it is very sticky, which slows down the emptying of the stomach and makes us feel fuller.
Absorb toxins and carcinogens, and reduce the absorption of existing substances by the intestine.
Stimulating intestinal peristalsis can make feces pass through the intestine quickly, clean the intestine, and combine with substances that produce cholesterol to increase the conversion rate and excretion of cholesterol.
Reduce the contact between intestinal enzymes and food, reduce nutrients entering intestinal mucosal cells, and reduce glycemic index.
Increasing the acidity of colon environment is beneficial to the proliferation of beneficial bacteria and promoting health.
At present, among the foods known to human beings in the world, the highest dietary fiber content is psyllium seed shell, which is called "fiber giant" and contains 86% per unit of psyllium seed shell.
Dietary fiber, and the soluble fiber content is equivalent to 14 times of the familiar oats! Plantago seed husk is native to India in West Asia. As a traditional herb, it has good medical use in Europe, America, West Asia and China.
According to the reference intake standard recommended by international nutrition experts, our body must consume 20-35 grams of dietary fiber every day to keep healthy, while the general diet structure can only consume 20-35 grams every day.
10-15g, which is far from meeting the needs of human body.
Dietary fiber can be roughly divided into insoluble dietary fiber and soluble dietary fiber according to its solubility in water.
The colon can be partially decomposed. Like a sponge, it can absorb water and expand in the body, which can increase satiety, make waste expand and soften, be more lubricated and be excreted faster. Helps prevent intestinal diseases such as constipation and hemorrhoids.
Dietary fiber is like a soft brush, which can stimulate intestinal peristalsis, make food residues pass through the intestine faster, reduce the absorption of toxins and carcinogens in the small intestine, clean the intestine and reduce colon cancer.
Dietary fiber can degrade to produce organic acids, increase intestinal acidity, facilitate the growth of beneficial bacteria and enhance intestinal digestive function.
Foreign studies show that soluble fiber can combine with substances that produce cholesterol, increase cholesterol excretion, reduce cholesterol intake and prevent hypercholesterolemia.
Disease, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, fatty liver, arteriosclerosis, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. In 1998, the US Food and Drug Administration advocated that psyllium seed husk should be the main food for a healthy and reasonable diet.
And pointed out: "Long-term use of soluble fiber can reduce the content of total cholesterol in blood, thus reducing the occurrence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases."
Dietary fiber is closely related to human health. Dietotherapy can excrete the metabolic waste that has remained in the human body for a long time in a natural state, which makes people full of energy, energetic and radiant, and achieves the functions of regulating endocrine and restoring metabolic function.
