That's not to say that celery sticks - along with other high fibre, water-heavy fruits and vegetables - have no value as weight-loss aids.
Companies who are building their own managed intranets, such as Delta Three and Qwest, with its ultra-high capacity fibre network, will avoid congestion.
Aside from its well-known purgative qualities, Mrs Oldroyd Hulme says that rhubarb is high in fibre, potassium, natural oestrogen (which helps prevent brittle-bone disease in women) and low in calories.
However he said it had been established that eating a balanced diet, which was high in fibre plus plenty of fruit and vegetables, lowered the risks of developing many forms of cancer.
In an editorial in the same journal, Dr John Baron, of Dartmouth Medical School in New Hampshire, said short-term studies appeared to suggest there was no effect from high dietary fibre intake on bowel cancer risk.
The low latency or delay inherent in high-speed fibre networks made possible novel uses of broadband, he said.
In many countries telecoms operators have been converting some of their last-mile connections to high-speed fibre-optic links, though cable networks and telephone wires still account for most last-mile connections.
The sailing venue in Portland, Dorset, for example, will require the building of a high-speed fibre network which would be a good opportunity for BT to build a bigger local network after the event.
Part of the investment will be used to install high-volume composite carbon fibre manufacturing equipment.
Net, Fibre Channel is high ROI, legacy Ethernet is low investment and converged products (recently introduced) are the growth engine.
Consider celery, often proposed as a negative-calorie food due to its low-calorie count, high water density, and impressive fibre content.
Another is to use high-tech pressure vessels made of carbon-fibre.
The campuses of eight universities, one in each UEMOA country, will be equipped with fibre optic equipment and at least 200 computers with high-speed connection.
Communities that are keen to obtain fibre-based broadband are being asked to publicly declare their desire for high-speed net access.
While Fibre Channel storage networking technology offers up to 16 Gbps data rates low cost, high speed Ethernet connectivity is raising its head.
