âSometimes I write drunk and revise sober, and sometimes I write sober and revise drunk. But you have to have both elements in creation â the Apollonian and the Dionysian, or spontaneity and restraint, emotion and discipline.â. â Peter De Vries, tags: misattributed-to-hemingway, writing-drinking.
Dietary fibers can act by changing the nature of the contents of the gastrointestinal tract and by changing how other nutrients and chemicals are absorbed. Some types of soluble fiber absorb water to become a gelatinous, viscous substance which is fermented by bacteria in the digestive tract. Insoluble fiber, which does not dissolve in water, is metabolically inert and provides bulking, or it can be prebiotic and metabolically ferment in the large intestine. 2  Bulking fibers absorb water as they move through the digestive system, easing defecation.
Fiber is an important part of any healthy diet. Adults should consume between 20 and 35 grams of fiber per day. This amount of fiber provides energy, improves health and also helps to prevent or treat the following diseases: Type 2 diabetes â A high-fiber diet seems to reduce the risk for type 2 diabetes. Foods that are high in fiber often have a low glycemic index and thus help to regulate blood-sugar levels. Low-fiber foods, on the other hand, are high on the glycemic index and cause big spikes in blood-sugar levels. A diet low in cereal fiber and high in high-glycemic index foods can more than double the risk for the disease.
