Why Fibre?
Functions of dietary fiber in the body:
- Dietary fiber, together with other changes in life style, helps to manage blood glucose in diabetic patients.
- A diet high in dietary fibre and low in saturated fat decreases cholesterol absorption and increases cholesterol excretion.
- High-fiber foods tend to be more filling than low-fiber foods, so you’re likely to eat less and stay satisfied longer.
- Helps prevent constipation by adding bulk to stools
