May I just point out that the study I presented "Dietary fibre intake in early pregnancy and risk of subsequent preeclampsia" 2008 Am J Hypertension - was NOT an animal study, it was a human study and the authors concluded "These findings of reduced preeclampsia risk with higher total fiber intake corroborate an earlier report; and expand the literature by providing evidence, which suggests that dietary fiber may attenuate pregnancy-associated dyslipidemia, an important clinical characteristic of preeclampsia." As you will see from my post, I have tried to present a diet-related view encouraging the intake of fruit and vegetables, which are important for overall health. Kindest regards Ani Dear Konstantin,

Yes, I read that recent research about mice and preeclampsia. Do you believe women have anything in common with mice? Don't you think it's ludicrous to transfer the findings on mice (100% herbivores) to humans who are mainly carnivores?
