Reminder: More Fiber = Lower Death Rate

Out of sight, out of mind.  In our ever changing world that continues to morph at the speed of light, yesterday's news is old hat as we constantly search for the newest & latest of everything.  As I was doing my weekly foraging amongst the multitude of medical journals, I stumbled upon an article published last week that concluded that consumption of more fiber is associated with lower mortality.  This looked vaguely familiar and so I searched my blog.  Lo & behold, the study was published early online (back in February) at which time I first noted it.  So I thought I'd bring it up again as a quick reminder that fiber is our friend.  Think about this as you celebrate the 4th of July weekend!
