Many of us have a fondness for junk food. What we have no fondness for are the associated medical conditions and weight gain. Authority Health Magazine — your source for unbiased, accurate and well-researched health and wellness information and trustworthy insights — presents the following book article: Research in Nutritional Science Shows That Fiber Can Counteract Saturated Fat and Calories — Promoting Less Restrictive Cholesterol and Weight Control. This book article is an introduction to the book Counteract the Fat: How Scientific Studies Have Shown That Fiber and Antioxidants Can Counteract the Physiological Effects of Junk Food and Promote Cholesterol and Weight Control With Less Restriction by DéShond L Barnes — ISBN: 9798398923704. This does not mean that we can eat all of the high-fat foods we want every day. What it does mean is less restriction and greater dietary freedom for healthy individuals. The information in the article is based on research published in the following scientific journals and platforms:

  • National Library of Medicine
  • The BMJ
  • Life Extension
  • MDPI
  • and others

With one exception, this research has been ongoing since the 1990s and has been conducted by a number of research teams at various research centers and institutions across America and abroad.
