Foods high in fiber are very important for digestive health, and because it makes you feel full, it can help with weight loss.

In addition to doing intestinal housecleaning work, fiber also slows the entrance of sugars into the bloodstream. Our bodies need the fiber to gather process and eliminate toxins. Fiber is the food for the beneficial bacteria in the gut, and it helps with elimination. Even though the liver has packaged the toxins up for elimination, the body still wants to recycle them. Fiber helps to escort those packages out before it gets reabsorbed. Fiber also helps in the elimination of cholesterol by the action of binding it to the digestive tract. If only we all ate more fiber found in fruits and vegetables, grains, legumes, nuts and seeds, we'll keep our digestive track moving along in a healthy manner. It also has been shown to reduce the risk of many diseases, including heart disease, obesity and diabetes.
