People with diabetes should consider soluble fiber as an essential element of their diabetes management or regulation plan.
Soluble fiber is also known for it’s cholesterol lowering ability. Which in turn decreases your chances of cardiovascular disease.
Include soluble fiber in your diet by adding Oats, Oat Bran, Dried Beans and Peas, Nuts, Barley, Flax Seed, Fruits such as Oranges and Apples, and Vegetables such as Carrots.
Insoluble Fiber
The best thing about insoluble fiber is that it pushes stuff through your digestive tract and cleans it. It also helps control or balance the pH (acidity) level in our intestines by removing toxic waste through the colon in less time.
If the body is alkalized, then cancers, bactieria, viruses, etc cannot grow in it because it is not a suitable environment.
Insoluble fiber can be found in green beans, spinach, strawberries, carrot and apple peelings and whole wheat items
To burn fat fast, it is extremely important to eat 40 grams of both types of fiber a day.
