Many studies with animals, including monkeys, have shown that reducing calorie intake significantly extends the life span. Normally, reducing calorie intake is achieved by reducing food intake. In people, such a life style, reducing one's food intake, is not likely to attract many individuals. Thus, another approach is outlined in this book: increasing fiber consumption at the expense of calorie-rich food components. The book discusses the role of fiber in food intake and digestion. It gives the latest information on the role of a fiber-rich diet in relation to diabetes, heart disease, weight control, cancer and gastrointestinal regularity. Tasty recipes rich in fiber are also included as is a table of fiber content of most common foods.
