FIBER


Eat plenty of fiber. A high fiber diet will help you control your weight and also can help you maintain healthy cholesterol levels. Fiber can lower blood sugar, cut cholesterol, and may even prevent colon cancer and help you avoid hemorrhoids. Women should get fiber about 25 grams a day and men at least 35 to 40, but the average person gets just 15 grams a day.

Corn, Apples, Kidney Beans, Avocado, Whole-Wheat Pasta, Brown Rice, Whole-Wheat Bread, Pear & Oatmeal are some examples of HIGH-FIBER food.
