    A study from the United States shows that soluble fibers from apples, such as glia, can reduce obesity related inflammation and strengthen the immune system Laboratory animals fed fat containing soluble or insoluble fibers had significantly different responses When their immunity was questioned, animals fed with soluble fiber had fewer diseases and faster recovery than other animals Researchers from the University of Illinois point out that studies have shown that soluble fiber has a direct anti-inflammatory effect and can enhance immunity It is reasonable rather than pharmacological to obtain this transformation Chronic depression is associated with the range of heart disease, osteoporosis, cognitive decline, and Alzheimer's disease, type 2 diabetes, and arthritis Now, researchers are exploring whether this benefit can be overstated if eating a high-fat diet If soluble fiber can offset some of the negative effects of a high-fat diet, the study will be tested Basically, immune obesity can resist the influence of fat Professor Gregory Freund, who led the study, said: now we need to find a way to maintain the anti-inflammatory properties for a long time, so that it contains high-fat diet and can reduce the negative effects of diet, such as hyperglycemia and high triglycerides High fat supplements with soluble fiber can achieve this effect and delay the development of diabetes Not all fibers have the same effect in Europe and Japan The market of soluble fiber is better than that of insoluble fiber In the United States, in 2004, the total value of the fiber market was $192.8m, the dominant soluble fiber was $176.2m, while the insoluble fiber was $16.6m However, frost and Sullivan predicted that by 2011, its market in the United States will reach $470m, and the growth rate of visco composite of soluble fiber will be doubled, and that of insoluble fiber will increase to 26.3% compared with the previous 13.1% Study details Freund and his partners fed rats low-fat supplements containing soluble or insoluble fibers for six weeks, six weeks after which they would suffer from endotoxin induced disease Christina sherry and his partners said: two hours after the endotoxin injection, only half of the rats fed the fiber developed the disease, compared with other mice, and half recovered quickly Within 24 hours, the differences between groups were always significant Christina Sherry added: "in just six weeks, the immune system of these animals has changed significantly and positively." This benefit is said to be related to the production of anti-inflammatory protein interleukin-4 (IL-4), the researchers note "Our data highlight the potential downside of a lack of natural pectin, particularly in relation to brain reactive infectious diseases."
