The mechanisms include the physical properties of fiber (such as increasing stool volume and shortening transit time) and the biochemical effects (such as the production of short-chain fatty acids) altering microbiota composition and function (1).
Dietary fiber (i.e., cereal, fruit, and whole grains) has been shown to significantly modulate the CRC risk, therefore, it is recommended (2, 3, 4, 5).
