Detailed explanation-1: -The American Heart Association Eating Plan suggests eating a variety of food fiber sources. Total dietary fiber intake should be 25 to 30 grams a day from food, not supplements. Currently, dietary fiber intakes among adults in the United States average about 15 grams a day. That’s about half the recommended amount.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics recommends consuming about 25-35 grams of total fiber per day, with 10-15 grams from soluble fiber or 14g of fiber per 1, 000 calories.
Detailed explanation-3: -Add beans and lentils to stews, curries, soups and salads. Swap white bread, pasta and rice for wholegrain versions. Eat potatoes with their skins on. Choose a high fibre, wholegrain breakfast cereal such as porridge, muesli, bran flakes and wholewheat biscuit cereal.
