Add dietary fiber to lower stroke risk

At Seattle weight loss hypnosis I know that when you add dietary fiber to your diet you lower your stroke risk, support your weight loss and overall improve your health. Foods containing fiber can provide other health benefits as well, such as helping to maintain a healthy weight, reduced risk of cancer, prevention of constipation and lowering your risk of diabetes and heart disease. Inadequate fiber intake appears to be a risk factor for breast cancer, which can explain why women eating plant-based diets may be at lower risk. Hypnosis for weight loss can help you increase dietary fiber in your diet.

More Dietary Fiber
Might Help Thwart Stroke:

HealthDay News, March 28, 2013: Eating more fiber-rich foods appears to lower stroke risk, according to a new British study.

For every 7-gram bump in daily fiber consumption, an individual’s risk for experiencing an initial stroke appears to plummet 7 percent, the investigators concluded after analyzing 20-plus years of research.

“This is important because most people in the U.S. do not eat enough fiber-rich foods,” said study co-author Victoria Burley, from the Center for Epidemiology & Biostatistics at the University of Leeds in England.

“Total dietary fiber intake should be 25 to 30 grams a day from food, but on average people in the U.S. are getting only half this amount,” Burley said.

Most people would have little trouble increasing overall fiber intake by 7 grams a day, the team concluded. A wide range of everyday foods — for example, a serving of whole-wheat pasta plus a piece of fruit and a standard serving of tomatoes — would enable people to reach this goal, the authors said.

A stroke is a medical emergency and can cause permanent neurological damage and death. Risk factors for stroke include old age, high blood pressure, previous stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA), diabetes, high cholesterol, tobacco smoking and atrial fibrillation. High blood pressure is the most important modifiable risk factor of stroke. It is the second leading cause of death worldwide. A high fiber diet can lower your risk for diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure and help you to lose weight.

Eating healthy high-fiber foods makes you feel full, so you can resist eating more food than you need. Dr. John McDougall tells us that a diet based on complex carbohydrates with the addition of fruits and vegetables will cause effortless, permanent, healthful weight loss without restricting food or causing hunger.
