Colin Berry
Dr Berry is a nutritional biochemist at the Flour Milling and Baking Research Association. For several years he has been working with Dr Nat Fisher on contributions of cereals to health.

Their work strongly suggests that diverticular disease is due to a incidence of the disease could be reduced by increasing the fibre content of the diet.
