Coarse grains such as brown rice; There are many dietary fibers in beans, root vegetables and seaweed, such as burdock, carrot, mung bean, red bean, pea, potato and Undaria pinnatifida. These foods are rich in cellulose and help to defecate.

Functions of cellulose:

1, preventing and treating constipation. Large-sized dietary fiber can promote intestinal peristalsis and reduce the residence time of food in the intestine.

2, conducive to weight loss. Increasing dietary fiber content can reduce energy intake, reduce intestinal digestion and absorption of nutrients, and ultimately consume body fat and play a role in losing weight.

3. Prevent colon cancer and rectal cancer. Increasing the content of dietary fiber can reduce the concentration of carcinogens, and dietary fiber can stimulate intestinal peristalsis, which greatly shortens the contact time between carcinogens and intestinal wall.

4. Reduce blood lipid and prevent coronary heart disease. Because some components in dietary fiber, such as gum, can combine with cholesterol and make it directly discharged from feces, thus lowering cholesterol and preventing coronary heart disease.
