Dietary fiber is
divided into two categories...soluble fiber
and insoluble fiber. Both types of fiber are
beneficial to our bodies. Studies indicate
that soluble fiber may help reduce blood
cholesterol, while the insoluble fiber
passes quickly through the digestive system
and helps clear the colon of toxins and
other wastes. Fiber can assist weight loss
goals by providing a "full" feeling.
The National Cancer Society recommends 25-30
grams of fiber per day. The typical North
American diet consists of only 8-10 grams of
daily fiber.
What is LiFiber?
LiFiber is a psyllium-based
powder drink that can be added to water,
juice, or the beverage of your choice.
LiFiber provides ample high-quality dietary
fiber and herbs that are beneficial to the
gastrointestinal tract.*
The uniqueness of LiFiber is enhanced by the
inclusion of a special dietary fiber called
Fructooligo Saccharide (FOS). FOS, which is
derived from chicory root, is a naturally
sweet substance that cannot be digested by
human digestive enzymes. FOS is mainly used
as a source of food for the "beneficial"
bacteria Bifidobacteria and Acidophilus.*
LiFiber includes 29 different herbs which
supply both insoluble fiber and the soluble
fiber. The psyllium base provides eight
times more soluble fiber than oat bran. This
balanced formula supplies 5.6 grams of
soluble and insoluble fiber per 10 gram
serving. Fiber can assist in weight
management goals by providing a "full"
feeling. Studies indicate that soluble fiber
may help reduce blood cholesterol*, while
insoluble fiber passes quickly through the
digestive system and helps clear the colon
of toxins and other wastes. Dietary fiber
acts as if it had zero calories and is found
only in plant sources.

Research
Brief
A colon elimination
cleanse is a cleanse most of us need. As the
solid waste management organ for the entire
body, mucous and rubber-like waste can
easily adhere to colon walls. The colon is
also the easiest breeding ground for
microorganisms, some of which may be
harmful. (A nationwide survey reveals that
one in every six people has negative
micro-organisms living somewhere in the
body.) The latest estimates show that over
90% of disease in America is related in some
way to an unhealthy colon. Headaches, skin
blemishes, bad breath, fatigue, and joint
distress can be linked to a congested colon.
Colon and bowel problems are a big factor in
early aging, too. When waste backs up, it
becomes toxic, and then releases the toxins
into the bloodstream. Other elimination
organs become overburdened in their
detoxification duties, and it's easy to see
why health problems begin. Cleansing your
colon lightens the toxic load on every other
part of your body.... even your mind. In
fact, hardly any healing program will work
without a colon cleanse as part of it. Real
healing takes place at the deepest levels of
your body, your cells. All cells are fed by
your blood. The nutrients that reach your
blood get there by the way of the colon. So
a clogged, dirty colon may mean toxins in
your blood. Fiber's significance comes from
its ability to move food through the
digestive system quickly and easily. A low
residue diet causes a gluey state that
cannot be efficiently processed by the
intestines.
