Apple Pectin and Fiber

Fiber from apples and whole grains became a focus of health writing in the 19th-century hygienic reform movement, which stressed plain, high-fiber diets as the foundation of good health. Battle Creek health pioneers such as Ellen White and John Harvey Kellogg championed whole-grain, high-fiber eating at the Battle Creek Sanitarium, a tradition that continues in modern recommendations for dietary fiber, though it was never framed there as a way to remove metals from the body.
