Fiber? Why should I care about eating fiber, and how much fiber do I need? This article gives a summary of why fiber is important, and daily fiber recommendations based upon your age and caloric intake.

And the following recipe gives you a delicious way to increase your fiber intake. This is a classic bran muffin recipe that I have tweaked over the years to improve flavor and texture and also reduce the sugar and oil content without sacrificing taste. These muffins are moist and bursting with flavor, everyone I serve these muffins to asks me for the recipe.
