I recently had some medical problems and my Drput me on a strict high fiber diet, but I still want to eat the things I enjoyPlus going strait to all fiber has me completely bloated and uncomfortableMexican food is my favorite and I'm wondering if it's a good thing to eat since there are a lot of beans in their dishes along with riceAny other suggestions on where to eat would be great as well since I do like to eat out at restaurants a lot.Thanks in advance for your help! :)
It might bebut i no that high fibre foods make your bowels work more efficientlyso this might be why its making you lose weight as its a natural laxative
Yes; not only does it help you get rid of waste which can make you feel bloated if it sits around in your body for too long, it also takes longer to digest, which helps you feel fuller for longerYou eat less because of this.
Well, it could beFoods high in fiber, fill you up faster and keep you fuller longerSo, you won't be as hungry.
Mexican food is ok if you choose carefully which dishes you eat.but tex-mex tends to be rather fatty and not as healthy as authentic mexican foodbeans are high fibre, eat dishes with plenty of additional veg and choose corn tortilla or wholewheat wraps rather than things made with white flour or just white riceI make my own mexican food and keep the fats low, add beans to nearly everything, make my own refried beansAvoid Macdonalds and similar outlets - If you eat indian food go for chickpea dishes, lentil dishes and chappattis which are made with wholegrain flour.
