I have spent most of the evening cruising the net for information. I found this site (Mayo Clinic) that has TONS of information. http://mayoclinic.com/health/high-fiber-recipes/RE00099 (that is the recipe area)
The other areas are very educational.. And yes, Maddy - flaxseed is an excellent source. The lower portion of this page http://mayoclinic.com/health/whole-grains/NU00204 has lots of links to different areas re: High Fiber.
Since Cobalt has high cholesterol (inherited) and would like to control it through diet as much as possible, I have found through reading that his diet and mine won't be so different other than I will watch the calories more. It also won't hurt our 13 year old to follow this as well. The sooner she eats healthy the better..
I imagine that we will need to buy stock in toilet paper... rofl!
