Soluble fiber attracts water and slows down digestion, making you feel fuller. It is found in oats, lentils, apples, oranges, pears, strawberries, nuts, flaxseeds, beans, dried peas, blueberries, cucumbers, celery, and carrots.
Insoluble fibers speed up the passage of food and waste through your gut, producing a laxative effect. Sources are whole grains, seeds, barley, dark leafy vegetables, grapes, and fruit.
Dietitians recommend from 21 to 38 grams of fiber daily, depending on your age and gender.
