Eating a high fiber diet can drastically reduce:
- colon cancers
- polyps
- rectal abscesses
- and pockets of inflammation
These can be irritating and painful, and affect productivity at work. Eat whole grains, fruit, or take a fiber supplement to insure you are eating correctly. The general rule of thumb for determining if you have enough fiber in your diet: does it sink or swim? Ask your nutritionist or medical doctor for further information.
What you can do if you’re an employer:
- consider high fiber options for your vending machines
- encourage employee’s to have annual checkups
- post healthy eating information on employee bulletin boards
- create an educational program for your employees outlining healthy eating habits (contact Proof:Positive for more information or consulting options)
