Soluble fibre breaks down as it passes though the digestive tract, forming a gel that traps toxins for removal from the body. It also absorbs excess cholesterol, which is helpful in lowering the risk of heart disease as it reduces the absorption of cholesterol into the bloodstream. Studies show that people on high-fibre diets have lower total cholesterol levels and may be less likely to form harmful blood clots than those who consume less fibre.
Soluble fibre is also considered helpful for people with diabetes (both Type I and Type II). Soluble fibre helps control blood sugar by delaying emptying of the stomach which slows the entry of glucose into the bloodstream and lessens the post-meal rise in blood sugar.
As well as its properties as a fibre supplement, acacia fibre is also a 'prebiotic'. Prebiotics help promote the colonization of healthy bacteria (flora) in the intestinal tract.
FIBRE
Every time we turn around something reminds us about the importance of fibre. Advertising touts products new and improved when they are considered high fibre or have added whole grain. So what's all the fuss about? The standard North American diet is largely deficient in fibre because of the refining process. It strips the fibrous coat off of grains and removes the skins of fruits and vegetables.
Thus the food becomes easier to process but deficient in fibre and nutrients. Diabetes and high cholesterol are just a few of the conditions that afflict millions of people and can be helped by proper fibre intake. There are several different types of fibre each with their own health benefits.
Bran, gums and mucilages are fibres that regulate blood sugar and lower cholesterol. They also bind to toxins and waste products in the intestines, ensuring that these harmful agents pass through the digestive tract without being reabsorbed by the body. By eating oatmeal, oat bran, sesame seeds and dried beans you take in substantial amounts of these fibres. Some medicinal types of this fibre are glucomannan and psyllium seed. Glucomannan binds to fat in the intestines, normalizes blood sugar and decreases appetite (by expanding in the stomach). It benefits those who are obese, diabetic or hypoglycemic. Psyllium seed is an intestinal cleanser and stool softener. It is the major component of the commercial preparation called Metamucil. But Metamucil contains colourings and flavourings that are not found in psyllium preparations.
Cellulose is an indigestible fibre that is found in fruit and vegetable skins. Because it is not absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract it bulks the stool and acts as an intestinal cleanser. It helps to prevent and treat hemorrhoids, varicose veins, constipation and colitis. It also binds to toxins so that they are not absorbed into the body.
Hemicellulose is also an indigestible fibre that is found in fruit and vegetables. It regulates the water content of the stool. It is used as a treatment for weight loss, constipation, detoxification and the support healthy cell growth within the colon.
Lignin is a fibre that has an affinity for fats and bile acids. It binds to these substances in the intestines and prevents their absorption or resorption into the body. Lignin is used to lower cholesterol, prevent gallstones, treat diabetes and support healthy cell growth within the colon.
Pectin slows the absorption of food after meals thereby decreasing the rate at which blood sugar enters the body. This is especially beneficial for people with diabetes whose bodies cannot properly take sugar into cells. Pectin, especially apple pectin, also binds to fats and bile acids. Thus it is used to prevent gallstones, and lower cholesterol. Citrus pectin has been studied for its ability to remove toxins from the body, reduce side effects from radiation therapy and limit tumour metastasis.
Fibre can be added to the diet by increasing your intake of whole grains, fresh fruit and vegetables (with skin!) and beans. If it is still needed, many commercial fibre preparations, each with a unique mix of fibres in tablets, capsules or powder form, are available. Read fibre supplements carefully because some may contain laxatives, making those preparations unsuitable for long-term use.
Start fibre supplementation with small doses, and lots of water, until your stool is the proper consistency. Fibre can compromise the absorption of other nutrients and medications if they are taken at the same time. Zinc, iron and calcium absorption are significantly impaired by fibre supplements.
