Natural fiber and bowel dysfunction
The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1976This paper reviews the current status of knowledge with relation to the effects of natural fiber on intestinal physiology. The one clear feature that emerges from literature is that most types of natural fiber increase the bulk of the stool. It is probable also that transit time is affected.

Due to their remarkable adaptability, polymers are used widely in many sectors, including packaging and construction materials. However, their resistance to degradation poses a significant environmental risk because conventional polymers can persist in nature for centuries. To address this challenge, the scientific community has turned to polymer-based

Natural Fiber-Reinforced composites
2012Over the last decade, composites of polymers reinforced with natural fibres have received increasing attention, both from the academic world and from several industries. There is a wide range of natural fibres which can be applied as reinforcements or fillers thanks to their properties and availability; i.e. flax, hemp, jute, kenaf and sisal.
