Dietary Fibre: Mechanisms of Action in Human Physiology and MetabolismJohn Libbey Eurotext, 1995 - 94 páginas Since the birth of the dietary fiber hypothesis in the early 1970's, research on this topic has been growing rapidly. This book synthesizes the available knowledge on the physiological effects of dietary fiber in man by focusing on the mechanisms of action. |
