Description

Dr. Roach: The addition of more fiber from whole grains and fruit is likely to have more benefits (including cancer and heart disease reduction) compared to a fiber supplement.

DEAR DR. ROACH: I am 75 and have not been able to eat beef or dairy products since my mid-20s. A colonoscopy revealed that I have diverticulosis, but I am generally not bothered if I stay away from all products that come from cows.
