Eat Fiber, Live Longer

February 24th, 2011

Fiber has long been seen as a key component of health.

Although I have concentrated more on associating fiber with dieting, this article mentioned another benefit of consuming fiber.

“High-fiber diet reduces the risks of death from cardiovascular, infectious and respiratory diseases.”

Now, this is a great article, but it has one major mistake…..

WHERE IS THE LOVE FOR KOMBU!!!!

For your information, I posted the per 100 gram comparison of KOMBU to the items mentioned in the article.

Please take a look……

Entrepreneurship. If your starting small, the key is to find a niche market and specialize.  Well Iain Mckeller definitely earned an A+ on this subject. Take a look at this interesting article on how Iain went from driving a milk lorry to receiving orders from Michelin-stared eateries.

Ok. We all know that ehow.com is not exactly the most reliable/legitimate source, but the information provide hear is indeed true. I used this article since it was simple to understand compared to various science journals.

What you can get out of this article is that Kombu or seaweeds contain a high level or iron and would be a great addition to your diet; especially if you are vegetarian.

When it comes to Kelp, the primary introduction seems to be tablets, but try including it as a broth or use strips of Kombu and add it to your beans!

Seaweed is something vegetarians should have a STRONG interest in.
