"Studies have demonstrated a reduced risk of colon cancer when
populations with diets high in total fat switched to a diet high in
total fiber and certain whole-grain foods. Case-control studies have
shown convincingly the relationship between dietary fiber and colon
cancer. Studies in animal models have demonstrated that the inhibitory
effects of dietary fiber on the development of colonic neoplasms depend
on the nature and source of the fiber; that wheat bran appears to
inhibit colon tumor development more consistently than do other dietary
sources of fiber, such as oat and corn bran; and that dietary
administration of phytic acid, high levels of which are present in
wheat bran, inhibits colon carcinogenesis. Human dietary intervention
studies have also indicated that the modifying effect of dietary fiber
on bacterial enzymes involved in the production of putative colon tumor
promoters depends on the type of fiber consumed. Dietary wheat bran,
but not oat or corn bran, significantly decreased the levels of several
tumor promoters in the colon, independent of stool bulk."

Achieving good Nutrition is an Art, NOT a Science!
The nutrition of eating a healthy diet is a biological factor of the
mind-body connection. Now, weighing in at 18 web pages, the
Nutrition of a Healthy Diet is with more documentation and
sharper terminology than ever before.
