Health benefits

Fiber, one of the main ingredients in SolaGrain, can help improve many of today's most common health conditions.

The three main diseases affecting people in industrialized countries today are excess body weight, Type 2 diabetes and elevated cholesterol levels -- illnesses that are of great concern, both in terms of healthcare responses and economic impact. Experts estimate that in some countries, 40% of the population will require treatment for diabetes by the year 2030.

Today over 23 million children and adults in the United States have diabetes, and nearly one-quarter of them do not even know it. What's more, one in five individuals in the United States is at risk of developing Type 2 diabetes. While the costs for treating diabetes and other lifestyle illnesses are skyrocketing, effective cures are readily available: a healthy diet and physical activity.

Above all, fiber has a critical role to play in treatment of such conditions, since it helps regulate blood sugar levels and reduces cholesterol. Moreover, fiber-rich foods are filling, thereby contributing to weight-loss. Fibers also promote good digestion and help the body maintain a healthy intestinal flora.
