>Growing up, fiber was something only my grandparents talked about. Now that I’m getting older, I’m the one talking about fiber. I guess you either die a hero, or live long enough to talk about prunes all day. In a meta-analysis, fiber reduced overall mortality by 23%. Not only did fiber improve cardiovascular mortality by 26%, surprisingly enough, fiber also reduced risk of cancer by 22%. This meta-analysis covered 64 studies with 3,512,828 total subjects, and the results have been reproduced in other studies. For example, a different study every 10g per day increase in fiber intake, there was a 10% reduction in overall mortality risk. While nutrition science isn’t perfect, the unreasonable effectiveness of fiber has a pretty strong body of evidence behind it.

Also, did they look at the differences between soluble and insoluble fiber.
