Fiber

Fiber, also called roughage or cellulose, should be an important part of anyone's daily diet. It helps to reduce fatty deposits. Here is how it works: When fiber enters your digestive system it absorbs the available liquids, then as it goes through the body it almost has a sweeping or cleaning effect on the cells. You see, fiber is not digested by your system, no, instead it goes through your system sweeping out the bad stuff and then is eliminated. It also reduces the reabsorbtion of bile salts (salts that digest and break up fats). So, this prevents the bile salts from reabsorbing once they've broken down fat, so the fat doesn't re-enter your system.
