Dietary Fiber

Dietary fiber is a type of carbohydrate found in cereals, grains, nuts, lentils, peas and vegetables. Dietary fiber based on its physical properties is classified in to soluble and insoluble fiber (resistant starch). It cannot be digested by our body enzymes and reaches the large bowel undigested. It gets fermented by bacteria in the large intestine and break down in to methane, hydrogen, carbon dioxide and short-chain fatty acids. It supports the growth of friendly bacteria needed to maintain a healthy gut, slows down the digestion time and makes one feel fuller for longer. It also helps to control blood sugar levels by slow absorption of glucose in to the blood stream. It helps in maintaining healthy heart by reducing absorption of cholesterol.
