What is Fiber?
Fiber a nutrient composed of the parts of plants that cannot be digested, called roughage. Fiber is important to digestion and is often used to relieve constipation or to reduce cholesterol.
By speeding up the process of digestion, Fiber helps lower cholesterol by preventing the intestines from reabsorbing all the bile acid. Because bile acid is chemically very similar to cholesterol, removing bile acid from the body results in less cholesterol being made by the liver.
Finally, fiber interferes with the absorption of sugar by the intestines, so it is used to lower blood sugar in patients with diabetes.
Fiber is available in foods (oatmeal, whole grains, seeds), as a powder, capsule, gummies, or drinks.
