Why to Include Fiber In Your Diet

Fiber in your diet should be included because as you might already know, helps you be regular. When choosing a cereal make sure to start one with fiber in it. There are also snack bars with fiber. The amount of fiber you should be getting from foods is 30 to 40 grams a day. Many foods have fiber like apples with the skin on, bananas, peaches, whole wheat bread and pasta, avocado, carrots, walnuts, sunflower seeds and many others. If you are not getting enough fiber in your diet then take a fiber supplement. You can find them anywhere you can find supplements.

Besides helping you with constipation, fiber in your diet also helps you against hemorrhoids, high cholesterol, high blood sugar, obesity, colon cancer, diabetes and heart disease. A diet rich in high fiber foods is essential for your ultimate health. Dietary fiber is vital for prevention or treatment of diverticulitis, diabetes, colitis, irritable bowel syndrome and Crohn's disease.
