What is fiber? Fiber is the part of fruits, vegetables, and grains that is neither digested nor absorbed. Since fiber does not provide any nutrients, how is it beneficial to nutrition? Fiber keeps your intestines working effectively and helps reduce the risk for many diseases, including cancer.

There are two kinds of fiber, soluble and insoluble. Each provides different benefits for the body because each performs differently.

SOLUBLE FIBER: Soluble fiber slows the rate of digestion by absorbing water in the intestines and converting the food into a gel.

INSOLUBLE FIBER: Insoluble fiber cleans out your intestines. It does not dissolve in water but can absorb many times its own weight in water. The water then softens the stools making them move along quicker and easier.

HEALTH BENEFITS OF FIBER

*FIBER REDUCES HIGH CHOLESTEROL. A diet rich in soluble fiber lowers blood levels of harmful cholesterol without lowering the levels of good cholesterol. The gel that is formed from soluble fiber picks up the cholesterol as it passes through the intestines and carries it out of the body.

*FIBER KEEPS BLOOD SUGAR LEVELS STEADY. Soluble fiber slows the absorption of sugar from the intestines. This steadies the blood sugar level and decreases the ups and downs of insulin secretion. By keeping insulin levels low and stable, the body stores less fat, a boost for anyone trying to lose weight.

*EAT WHOLE GRAINS. Avoid white bread and white rice as they have had the fiber processed out of them. Use only food made with whole grain such as whole grain breads, cereals, wheat germ, barley and brown rice. Always check food labels.

*EAT WHOLE FRUITS AND VEGETABLES. Avoid fruit juices, as they can be high in sugar content. The skins are the richest source of fiber.

*EAT BEANS. Most varieties of beans are a rich source of fiber, especially kidney beans and garbanzo beans.

*EAT SMOOTHIES. Throw a bunch of fresh fruit, yogurt, and ground flaxseed in the blender for a tasty, high fiber treat.
