Fibre water?

Australian Prime Minister John Howard has long endorsed that children drink water with fluoride to combat tooth decay. At the same time, the Australian Health Ministers are seeking a solution to their nation's problem of childhood obesity. In numerous clinical studies it has been shown that soluble fiber addresses obesity by curbing appetite, stabilizing blood sugar levels, aiding digestion and removing toxins from the body, including cholesterol to maintain a healthy heart.

I ignored this strange news item in the beginning but I think it is serious. Howard will be wanting this in the water to cut down on obesity :o)
