I don't think I am getting enough fibre in my diet and would like some advice on which foods contain high levels of fibre, and also which supplements you would recommend.I am thinking trying quot;fibresurequot; which you just add to water - it is 100% vegetable fibre with no other nasties - has anyone tried it?A list of foods high in fibre would be great, thanks.
Make sure you are eating plenty of fresh fruits and veggies, plus whole grain breads and wraps! I also like to add flax seed and wheat germ to yogurt, smoothies, all kinds of things, to add in their nutritional benefits! Easy! These foods are all High Fiber Bananas, 3 grams - medium 8 long Beans, 6-10 grams - baked beans, black beans, great northern beans, kidney beans, garbanzos, pinto beans, white beans Berries, 4-5 grams - blackberries, raspberries Bran Cereals, 5-10 grams - All-Bran, Bran Buds, 100% Bran, Raisin Bran Bread, 4-7 grams - 2 slices whole wheat, pumpernickel, seven-grain Broccoli, 4-5 grams Brussels Sprouts, 2 grams Carrots, 3-4 grams Dried Figs, 10 grams - 3 figs Fruit, 4 grams - medium apple, medium pear Green Beans, 2 grams - broad beans, pole beans, snap beans Greens, 4-6 grams - beet greens, collards, kale, spinach, turnip greens Lentils, 6 grams Lima Beans - 4-6 grams Peas, 7-9 grams - black-eyed peas, green peas Potatoes, 4-5 grams - medium baked Idaho or sweet potato Sweet Corn, 5 grams
You should be fine, brown rice just needs a little extra cooking time so factor it in :)
