Great Site

[Home w/Kids & Dogs]

Just wanted to check in. I found this site over the Summer and have surfed it occasionally; but I just Registered Yesterday. I will soon be 36 and have been home with the kids almost 2 1/2 years. My son Bill(who now wants to be called Will) is 7 1/2 and my daughter Abby is almost 3(She just started wearing Big Girl Panties to bed at night). We live in NW Ohio and I am sick of raking leaves already. I hope to contribute as much as I have taken; but that will be pretty hard to accomplish. I am the only SAHD in my circle of friends; so it is great to be able to Share experiences with others. I probably will holler some too. Especially if the Browns continue to suck.

Thanks for being here.

I've been known to delve in crappy matters now and then...so here, digest this... :toimonster: Fasten your seatbelt...

Although breakdown of some fiber components on passage through the gut was recognized, it was considered largely as a bulking agent and was defined as "plant structural and exudative components not digested by human digestive enzymes" . This has been called the "roughage model" whereby any protection by fiber was due to its dilution or binding of toxins and carcinogens in the intestines through its physical presence. The then-current analytical procedures accorded with that concept, with gravimetric measurement of residues after extraction of foods or ingredients with neutral or acid detergent solutions yielding a residue of insoluble fiber components.

Hang with me Louis because the application of this, rather limited, technology to humans showed that the breakdown of fiber on transit in humans was surprisingly large for some foods. Here is where it gets interesting Louis, for example, during passage of wheat bran, only 36% was degraded but only 8% of cabbage fiber survived.

In other words...and in English...the fiber doesn't let the prunes be dissolved. =D> :prayer: :supz:
