Fiber plays an important role in bowel health. A diet that is low in fiber and/or water leads to small, hard stools. This condition is known as constipation. If excessive straining occurs during defecation, the anal veins can swell, causing hemorrhoids. Lots of pressure in the colon caused by excessive straining during defecation can cause small pouches called diverticula to protrude through the large intestine wall. When these pouches are inflamed and painful, the condition is known as diverticulitis. During periods of inflammation, a low-fiber diet is indicated. If pouches in the large intestine exist without painful symptoms, the condition is known as diverticulosis. In this case, a high-fiber diet can ease stool elimination and prevent future attacks.

Which three food groups contribute the most dietary fiber?

Use the terms on the left to complete the following sentences about hormonal regulation of blood glucose.

After a late night, you overslept this morning and woke up late for class. In a rush to leave the house, you failed to eat breakfast. A few hours later, with an empty stomach, your blood glucose drops. This prompts your pancreas to release glucagon to stimulate breakdown of glycogen in the liver into glucose. After morning class, with your stomach growling, you stagger to the cafeteria and devour a large pasta entree for lunch. Following this meal, your blood sugar rises and the pancreas releases insulin in an attempt to shuttle blood sugar into your cells. You go to your next class, but because you're so full from lunch, you doze off. You awake to your classmate poking you in the arm as you realize the teacher is calling your name to answer a question. With your heart racing, your body now releases epinephrine, which increases glycogen breakdown in the liver and raises your blood sugar.

Diabetes is a disease of improper glucose regulation that results in more than 230,000 deaths per year in North America. The majority of people with diabetes in North America have type 2 diabetes (formerly called noninsulin-dependent or adult-onset diabetes). This type of diabetes is characterized by insulin resistance. Approximately 5-10% of diabetes cases are type 1 diabetes (formerly called insulin-dependent or juvenile-onset diabetes). This type of diabetes is an autoimmune disease that results in no pancreatic insulin production. The type of diabetes that may occur during pregnancy is called gestational diabetes. Women with this type of diabetes are at increased risk for developing type 2 diabetes later in life.
