About Dietary fiber

Dietary fiber is a plant-based nutrient found in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds. It is classified into two types: soluble fiber, which dissolves in water and forms a gel-like substance, and insoluble fiber, which adds bulk to stool and aids in digestion. Common sources include oats, beans, carrots, and whole wheat products. With origins in plants, dietary fiber plays a crucial role in many global cuisines, from grain-based dishes in Mediterranean diets to legume-rich meals in South Asian traditions. Health benefits of dietary fiber include promoting bowel regularity, supporting heart health by lowering cholesterol, and aiding in weight management by increasing feelings of fullness. While fiber is highly beneficial, excessive intake without adequate hydration may lead to bloating or discomfort. Incorporating a balanced amount of fiber-rich foods into meals can support overall health while enriching dietary diversity.
