Dietary fiber is usually found in fruits, vegetables, beans, and whole grains. Fiber is soluble or insoluble: Insoluble fiber (for example, nuts and seeds, some vegetables, whole grain foods) doesn't dissolve in the stomach and can have rough hard bits that irritate the intestines as it passes through. Soluble fiber (in foods like apples, bananas, citrus fruits, beans, berries, oats, and peas) attracts water into the intestines and becomes a gel. Foods with a little soluble fiber can often be eaten in small amounts (depending on why you're on a low-fiber diet) because the soft fiber gel doesn't irritate the intestines the same way. A low-fiber diet means you eat foods that do not have a lot of fiber. If you have certain medical problems, you may be asked to reduce the amount of fiber in your diet to rest your bowels (or intestines). A low-fiber diet reduces the amount of undigested food moving through your bowels, so that your body makes a smaller amount of stool. A low-fiber diet may be suggested after some types of surgery or if you have diarrhea, cramping, or trouble digesting food. Get Your Copy Now!
