Guest guest Posted October 22, 2001 Report Share Posted October 22, 2001 , I'm just curious, but could you give examples of how you eat raw chicken and beef? Do you freeze it first?

Guest guest Posted March 2, 2003 Report Share Posted March 2, 2003 Hi All, " guar gum. (3 calories per gram.... One Lb of guar gum costs $5.00..... Actual calories may truly be less, since the gum is 100% soluble fiber. " Cheers, Al. From: " adstruijk <struijk@a...> " <struijk@a...> Date: Sun Mar 2, 2003 9:32 am I would be interested in hearing from others on the CRON diet how they manage to consume the recommended 60 grams of fiber daily while keeping calorie intake low. Dried prunes are the fruit with the highest proportion of fiber compared to the calories it contains (5.7 grams for 147 calories). I would have to consume 1547 calories in prunes just to reach 60 grams of fiber. The only practical way in which 60 grams a day can be reached that I know of is to eat large amounts of wheat bran (44.5 grams for 188 calories). However that doesn't give me any soluble fibers.
