Fiber-rich food at risk
Researchers at King’s College London found that the skins, outer parts and stems of 10 of the 12 types of fruit and vegetables they analyzed contained more fiber than the parts usually eaten. Parts that could be put to use include watermelon rind, pineapple core and pumpkin seeds, though results varied by type: broccoli stems contain less fiber than the florets, while fennel leaves are richer in fiber than the bulb. The finding is significant given that only 4% of adults get the recommended daily amount of fiber: 30 grams.
