Hard to beat, unless you value a healthy lower-GI tract.

Fibre is important.

The conclusions drawn on colorectal cancer here are in direct contradiction with many other studies, before and since. Of course fibre-loading a chronically constipated IBS patient is a stupid thing to do, but seriously, "fibre is protective against CRC" is not a controversial statement.
