So fiber and the way it slows down the intake of blood sugary things, for example.

When you have spikes of blood sugar all the time, this can be pro-cancerous by multiple routes, by making the immune cells a bit more aggressive by then, you know, promoting pro-inflammatory causes.

So it's a very complex building, but the simple answer is yes, fiber can protect you of colon cancer, for example.

And then other cancers that are related to those metabolic processes that I mentioned.

For example, a very simple link is sugar.

When you look at sugar, it is high energy, and immune cells will realize that they have now this budget of energy to spend.

And of course, they are pro-safety.

And of course they say, oh, I'd rather have some more safety guards and some unnecessary inflammation than too little.

So this is a little bit the tendency they're leaning towards.

Well, because when you look at our history, thousands of years, it's always better to have this additional safety, but we rarely ever had enough energy for that.

Our energy budget was always...

limited, cut off at the very, you know, necessary things.

And suddenly we have all this energy to spend.

And then the immune system, as we see, is a bit switched on by sugar.

It goes a bit more into the aggressive direction because it can, you know.

And this is one process that sugar will tip off.

And we see, for example, people drinking soft drinks high in sugar for 10, 20 years, they have a significant elevated risk of like inflammatory diseases.

And this isn't always the one cause why someone has an inflammatory disease.

It's different other possibilities, pollution in our environment, making the immune cells irritated and aggressive, genetic predisposition where there's less calming signals, you know, in an immune system, for example, all these other things.

But for example, sugar is one of them and it can tip off these processes and this then can have a range of effects.
