How does fiber help lose or maintain weight?
Most Americans are chronically deficient in fiber. To have maximal health, we should be eating about 30 grams of fiber each day. Most people in the U.S. are only eating about 50% of the recommended fiber. Ingesting more fiber can dramatically increase your weight loss. Here’s how it works: when you eat fiber, it fills you up which is a great way to begin to train your body to eat less at meals and have more control over your portions. Studies have shown that the more fiber that goes into your body, results in less fat on your body. An added bonus of eating more fiber is usually a lower level of cholesterol in your blood. Ingested fiber binds with cholesterol which is then removed out of your body.
