Myth: We should eat more fibre
誤區二：多吃高纖食品
For three decades, we have crammed fibre into our bodies to help us feel full and keep our digestive systems moving. This is not a good idea, says Harcombe.
30多年以來，人們大量食用纖維類食物來制造飽腹感并讓消化系統不斷工作，然而赫爾康比說，這并不是一件好事。

The advice to eat more fibre is put forward along with the theory that we need to flush out our digestive systems. But essential minerals are absorbed from food while it is in the intestines, so why do we want to flush everything out. Concentrate on not putting bad foods in.
基于清腸排毒這一說法，人們提出了多吃高纖食物的建議。但是食物中所含的人體必需礦物質都是在腸道中被身體吸收的，那么我們為什么要把所有東西都清洗一空啊。拒絕垃圾食品才是王道。
