Another plus for the right kind of breakfast.

The eggs-and-bacon breakfast is rapidly becoming a thing of the past, as h Americans return to breakfast food rich in fiber. In addition to the already-imp potential health benefits of such a diet, a recent study suggests that the risk from intestinal polyps may be reduced with a high-fiber diet.

In a four-year study of 58 persons with familial polyposis, an inherited p condition, it was found that patients who consumed a high-fiber bran cereal dail reduction in the number of polyps in their large intestines compared to those wh a look-alike low-fiber cereal. Sizes of some of the polyps actually regressed. T fiber, such as that found in oat bran, in reducing cholesterol levels when taken a low-fat diet has already been documented. Oat bran, however, is low in soluble comparison with psyllium seed, an old-time remedy used to promote bowel regulari such products as Metamucil, Serutan, Fiberall and now also in two new breakfast "Heartwise" and General Mills' Benefit."
