EFFECTS OF FIBRE ON ABSORPTION
Abstract
Fibre is assuming an increasingly important role in the UK diet, and therefore it is essential that we understand how it may affect nutritional status. Currently there is concern about the effect of fibre on mineral metabolism, since it has been shown to reduce the absorption of some minerals, such as iron and zinc, from the diet.
