They can also be caused by to much of a certain substance in the diet, such as carbohydrates. Many other health conditions can result from an excess of a certain food.
Conditions such as appendicitis, constipation, and irritable bowel syndrome are aggravated by a diet rich in refined carbohydrates or low in fiber. Note that foods rich in fiber are essential ingredients in any balanced diet.
A diet rich in saturated fats causes increased levels of cholesterol and fat in your blood, leaving you at risk for artherosclerosis.
