Fiber decreases:

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Fiber decreases the glycemic index value of a food. This means that the food will cause a slower rise in blood sugar levels after being consumed, which is beneficial for those with diabetes or insulin resistance.

Answer: C
 Fiber increases peristalsis, which is the movement of food through the digestive system. This can help prevent constipation and promote regular bowel movements. However, the question is asking for the opposite, so C is incorrect.

Answer: B, D, and E 
 None of these answer choices are correct. Fiber has not been shown to directly cause a decrease in food allergies, hyperhomocysteinemia (a condition where there is too much homocysteine in the blood), or marasmus (a severe form of malnutrition).
