I need more fiber in my diet.

rpgoof · 05-11-2008, 10:57 AM

I'm not going in depth on why, but I just do due to certain circumstances.
Suggestions? I know nothing of the world of fiber.

Dizzy · 05-11-2008, 11:03 AM

Heh, I was told the same thing when my poop started to become strange.

There are powders you can mix in with drinks that you won't even be able to tell are there.

Jon · 05-11-2008, 11:39 AM

Eat more bread. Also you can get those fiber cereals.

Fiber One bars are a great quick source to Fiber. However eat anything high in fiber with caution as they will make you a little uneasy in the pants if you eat to much.

You could eat strands of nylon. Or read the following.

Metamucil?

OR eat some foods high in fiber.

MajerPayne · 05-12-2008, 10:38 PM

I'd go with Metamucil.
Easy way to make sure your getting fiber each and everyday.
Without having to eat something you don't like or that may be a bit expensive.

I got some wheat bread and I'm stuffing my face full of Fruity pebbles and it seems to be working for me

OrphanBoy · 05-28-2008, 06:03 PM

Mini wheats for breakfast, yum.

Luna · 06-04-2008, 03:55 PM

Yep, but nothing beats prunes. Seriously.
Bananas are fine too. Any fruit. But prunes = the best.

BobtheWalrus · 06-04-2008, 08:14 PM

Apples
Avocadoes
Beans
Wheat (I think)
Prunes
Plums

Any fruit

tenritsu · 06-06-2008, 08:39 AM

Bananas... mmmm...

Try oatmeal or cereal in the morning.

icecavern · 06-07-2008, 08:23 AM

My girlfriend takes these orange fiber supplement things. She loves them...I tried one and I thought it tasted terrible. But maybe you'd see them as a delicious candy as she does.

kizza666 · 07-02-2008, 03:53 AM

"The five most fiber-rich plant foods, according to the Micronutrient Center of the Linus Pauling Institute, are legumes (15-19 grams of fiber per US cup serving, including several types of beans, lentils and peas), wheat bran (17 grams per cup), prunes (12 grams), Asian pear (10 grams each, 3.6% by weight), and quinoa (9 grams)."

Hope this helps

I guess just eat more cereal. Tasty + fiber = everything moving nicely

It's surprising that no one mentioned celery. Also, because it takes more calories to digest it than it provides you with, it is a good way to lose weight, not that I know whether you need to or not.
