Fiber Is Good for You. Now Scientists May Know Why. - The New York Times

'While some species of gut bacteria feed directly on dietary fiber, they probably support other species that feed on their waste. '

'By generating these responses, gut bacteria help maintain a peaceful coexistence with the immune system. '

'Bäckhed said. “A lot of lard, a lot of sugar, and twenty percent protein.”The scientists focused on the diversity of species that make up the mouse’s gut microbiome. '

'The mucus layer in their guts was healthier than in mice that didn’t get fiber, the scientists found, and intestinal bacteria were kept at a safer distance from their intestinal wall. '

'The species that depend on dietary fiber starve, as do the other species that depend on them. '
