power eating

Insoluble of soluble? It doesn’t matter how you get your fiber. What’s important is that you do get it. “People eat so little fiber, we’ll take anything,” says Dr.Blackburn. “Whatever you can find –some peas in your stew—put them in!”
A high-fiber diet fills you up without filling you out, keeps you regular, helps lower your cholesterol level and may help reduce the risk of colon cancer. The nutritionists advocate getting at least 20 grams per day. A breakfast of oatmeal, whole-wheat toast, a pear and banana would give you more than half that amount. The highest-fiber foods are fruits, vegetables, whole grains and legumes.
