A List Of 5 Simple High Fiber Foods To Eat For 25 Grams Of Fiber
Daily
By Cliff Smith

Do you know which foods are high enough in fiber to help you
reach the recommended level of 25-35 grams of fiber every day?
Here are 5 easy ways to remember which foods to eat for at least
25 grams of fiber in your daily diet.

1. "An apple a day keeps the doctor away". Fuji, Gala, Golden
Delicious Pink Lady, Granny Smith and McIntosh apples each
provide around 5 grams of fiber.

Apples are quite possibly, the easiest, high fiber foods to
eat. There are many varieties to choose from, and in a few
minutes you can quickly pick up 5 grams of fiber. No cooking or
preparation required, except for a little rinsing. You can eat
them on the go, in the car, at work, or even in bed. Of course
we all have heard, "An apple a day keeps the doctor away". The
choices are plenty, they're relatively inexpensive and apples
provide a perfect source of nutritional fiber in a convenient,
ready to eat package.

2. "Beans, beans, good for your heart…" Black beans provide as
much as 7g of fiber per quarter cup of dry beans. A quarter cup
of Pinto Beans ring up a hefty 12g of fiber per serving and
Garbanzo Beans add 9g of fiber to your diet per 1/4 cup serving.

Yes, it's true, beans are good for your heart and they are
really good food to eat for their high fiber content. Very few
foods with as much nutrition are as versatile, economical and
flavorful as beans. There are many ways to prepare beans or to
order them while dining out. Soups often provide a good source
of beans. You may even enjoy a few beans in a salad, or try the
ever popular, rice and beans. Fast food chains sometimes have
bean burritos, bean chili, or salads with beans on the menu.

3. "Breakfast is the most important meal". A bowl of shredded
wheat, a piece of toast with multi grain bread, or an all bran
muffin are wholesome high fiber food choices for breakfast. Each
one can give you 3-5g of fiber or more and they are easy to
prepare.

It may or may not be the most important meal, but breakfast is
usually the first opportunity to start your day with plenty of
fiber. Orange juice and apple juice go nicely with an all bran
muffin for fiber first thing in the day.

4. "Shake it up and go". Get 5g of fiber in a cold, delicious
chocolate or strawberry shake.

Now, it's easy to find, on the Internet, some high quality
health drinks that provide excellent sources of soluble fiber.
In fact, one high fiber protein drink even provides FOS,
fructooligasacharides, a pro-biotic soluble fiber that is
typically found in foods like onion, garlic, oats, and barley.
High fiber health drinks make it easy to mix up a delicious
shake with a few pieces of frozen banana or other fruit, for a
cold, creamy, tasty way to start the day with 5g of fiber.

5. "High fiber food is good for your mood". When you eat plenty
of fiber you feel better. Try a high fiber food bar for a quick
snack any time of day and feel good about yourself without the
guilt of snacking on junk food.

People eat candy bars, power bars, and all kinds of bars that
offer little or no fiber. If you are going to eat a meal
replacement bar or a healthy snack, then why not eat one with
plenty of fiber? A high fiber food bar should give you at least
4g of fiber in a serving. If it doesn't, then it isn't worth the
calories. You can find them on the Internet, but not in
convenience stores. Look for "all natural high fiber food bars"
to get the most nutrition and the most fiber for your dollar.
