It has long been recognized that fruit, vegetables, and cereal fiber alter bowel function. The right colon can be regarded as a fermenter and an absorbing organ, and the left colon is for continence. A rationale for the use of fiber based on physical chemical properties is discussed. On this basis, the use of coarse wheat bran, apples, oranges, and carrots is recommended to treat diverticular disease, spastic colon, and constipation.
长期以来，人们一直认识到水果、蔬菜和谷物纤维会改变肠道功能。右半结肠可被视为一个发酵器和吸收器官，而左半结肠则负责保持大便节制。本文讨论了基于物理化学性质使用纤维的基本原理。在此基础上，建议使用粗麦麸、苹果、橙子和胡萝卜来治疗憩室病、痉挛性结肠和便秘。
