In this episode, we explain the biological mechanisms and how risk reduction is assessed in Europe.In this episode, we cover:• What insoluble fiber is (plant fiber that does not dissolve in water)• How it supports bowel motility and gut health• The link between fiber intake and insulin sensitivity• Evidence connecting whole grain intake to lower type 2 diabetes risk• Associations between fiber and reduced colorectal cancer risk• Recommended daily fiber intake under European nutrition guidance• When digestive symptoms require medical evaluation• When cancer screening is recommended based on age and riskDoctors assess BMI, blood glucose levels, lipid profile, family history of colorectal cancer, bowel habit changes, and overall diet before advising lifestyle adjustments.
