Fiber is one of those tricky things. There's never a "one stop
solution" for all medical issues : For example - I'm a big
believer in Olive Oil - the old fashioned, basic no-flavor style
can be used for nearly everything - the food equivilant of
Mineral Oil. But - not everybody can have oil or fat. Or fiber -
it's good for some people and for some people fiber is the worst
thing. Or even salads - great for many but if you have a bad
kidney stone problem, you have to be careful not to have too
many greens (although it's hard to overdose on greens unless you
eat 2 cans of spinach a day)... so yeah, in the end, everybody's
different. "
