The internet is a fantastic resource for health information, but it's also a breeding ground for scams. Unfortunately, the natural product marketplace is no exception. Today, we're exposing a particularly sneaky scam in the green superfood world and highlighting why fiber is crucial for your health.
The "Smarter Reviews" Deception
A certain green food company has stooped to a new low by creating a fake review website called "Smarter Reviews." This sham website pretends to be an independent agency that tests products, but surprise, surprise – their own low-quality, low-fiber green food is the only product receiving an A+ rating!
To make matters worse, they're actively spreading misinformation about cereal grasses, claiming that people should avoid them because they contain fiber. This is a blatant lie!
The Truth About Fiber and Cereal Grasses
Let's set the record straight: fiber is not the enemy. In fact, it's a critical component of a healthy diet, especially for your colon. The specific type of fiber found in cereal grasses like wheatgrass and barley grass is particularly beneficial for promoting colon health.
For over 90 years, cereal grasses have been a staple in the green superfood world. Why? Because they offer an excellent source of fiber and other essential nutrients. Bestselling author and health expert Dr. David Ruben, in his book "The Save Your Life Diet," highlights the importance of high-fiber diets. His cross-cultural studies revealed that indigenous populations with high-fiber natural diets have significantly lower rates of cancer, heart disease, and other "diseases of civilization."
The Dangers of Low-Fiber Diets and Fake Green Superfoods
The low-fiber product being peddled by these scammers is simply not good for you. In fact, it should only be consumed if you're also supplementing with high-fiber cereal grass products.
Recent research from the University of Michigan confirms Dr. Ruben's findings, showing that low-fiber diets can lead to the growth of harmful anaerobic bacteria in the colon, instead of the beneficial probiotic bacteria we need. This imbalance can increase your risk of colon cancer and other diseases.
Beyond the Fiber Fiasco: Other Red Flags
The lack of fiber isn't the only issue with this scam product. Here are some other red flags to watch out for:
- Suspicious sourcing: Some of their ingredients come from countries with lax quality control and inspection standards.
- Cheap packaging: The use of plastic tubs reflects a disregard for quality and environmental sustainability. Plastic doesn't protect the greens from oxidation and can leach harmful microplastics into your food.
