TL;DR: This paper found that the mixed fiber supplement (fiber-filler) advocated in the F-plan diet caused a slight reduction in iron status in rats, and that mixed fiber supplements can have an adverse effect on mineral absorption.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors determined if the absorption and accumulation of zinc, cadmium and iron differ amoung diets based on different grains and, if so, what differences among the grains might explain the differences in mineral absorption.
Abstract: The purpose of this study in rats was to determine if the absorption and accumulation of zinc, cadmium and iron differ amoung diets based on different grains and, if so, what differences among the grains might account for the differences in mineral absorption.
