Emily, I'm with you that I always had an intuitive sense even as a little kid, that all this "fiber" people and doctors told me to eat, was actually doing me more harm than good. And still today, doctors knowingly miseducate their patients b/c the research that fiber is BAD and TOXIC is in every medical journal that exists.
I LOVE reading medical journal studies and articles and reports from doctors who aren't afraid to call out their colleagues as liars. And they are liars, doctors who give out bad advice without even considering their patient's health and well-being.
We have to advocate for ourselves no matter what, especially with doctors.

But I am glad I found that book. My "gut" was always telling me that fiber didn't do anything for me but I didn't listen because of the "experts" telling me otherwise. Now I know.
