interesting paleo and prebiotic fiber site by Jeff Leach

[Guest guest]

This will interest anyone with an awareness of paleo diets in

general and specifically, the indigestible fiber content of those

diets as they apply to health.

 

I was referred for a second time last night to the website of

researcher Jeff Leach, the author of more than 50 peer-reviewed

works, by an associate who also knows Bryan Tungland, the author

of the Comprehensive Scientific Review we have been using for

prebiotics information.

Note Mr. Leach's edifying article on historic agave cultivation

in the northern Tucson Basin in Arizona. Agave, which is related

to Aloe, has a particularly long-chain profile of complex

prebiotic fiber, which may focus new interest on this traditional

food. Mr. Leach has also been researching prebiotic fiber intake

in the traditional diets of people in other parts of the world.

 

In his various and upcoming works Mr. Leach explains the historic

role that a varied diet, rich in diverse indigestible fibers has

played in bowel health through the ages, and comments that the

modern diet is lacking this richness that we evolved with, even

in the upper fifth of the population.

 

This will pique the curiosity of those who appreciate that our

approach approximates the natural, paleolithic diversity

described from a researcher's pespective.

 

The man who referred me, and Mr. Leach, have decades of knowledge

on traditional and evolutionary diets between them and I will be

quite pleased to learn more from them both in the future.
