title: [The prevention of hemorrhoids in sailors].
abstract: Seafaring personnel are exposed in their everyday life and work to factors of ship environment contributing to the development of hypomotor intestinal dyskinesias, colitis, proctitis, proctosigmoiditis, hemorrhoids. Rations for seafaring personnel are deficient in food fibre: 11 g per twenty-four hours, with the norm being 40-70 g per twenty-four hours. A positive result was achieved in the study of the action of a concentrate of food fibre prepared from wheat bran by special methods in patients with hemorrhoids. The above concentrate can be recommended for prevention and dietotherapy of hemorrhoidal disorders of the intestine and hemorrhoids.
