Whether as a snack to go with one’s coffee or tea, or as a healthy solution to a much needed energy boost, local Long Beach resident Linda Ikeda has got what she believes is a great “jumpstart” to anyone’s day.

FDA states:
A food's fiber content also may be of interest to consumers seeking "heart-healthy" foods. Some studies suggest that dietary fiber--that is, fiber from foods such as fruits, vegetables and grains--may help lower the risk of heart disease.
The Daily Value for fiber is 25 g. This is based roughly on FDA and USDA reference amounts of 11.5 g of fiber per 1,000 calories. Fiber information is important for weight reduction, too. Overweight is a risk factor for heart disease, and reducing fat while increasing fiber can benefit those who want to lose or maintain their weight.
