Fiber is Nature's scrub brushes for the body. In the burning of food calories, there is waste material made by the body. But the body does not make enough waste to clean the system thoroughly. Fiber is bulky and combines with the cell waste to clean the body inside. If you don't get enough fiber in your system you get constipated. This can lead to dependence on laxatives which alters your body's ability to clean itself.
