A high fibre-eating pattern may be prescribed for people suffering from constipation, diverticulitis, gallstones, piles and some other conditions. However, a high fibre-eating pattern is beneficial to everyone, especially for those endeavoring to lose weight, decrease cholesterol levels, control diabetes and perhaps aid in the control of blood pressure. Note: for a few people who have specific medical problems, which affect kidney function and those who have renal disease, it may be dangerous to increase the potassium content of their diet. These people should consult their doctor or dietitian before altering their diet. This also applies in the case of the use of potassium chloride as a salt substitute.
