Want to get more fiber into your diet? It's easy. Just eat more foods that are high in fiber.
Fruits and vegetables that are excellent sources of fiber:
- Apples
- Beans
- Berries
- Carrots
- Figs
- Oranges
- Pears
- Peas
Here are some good sources of fiber from grains and breads:
- Bran muffins
- Brown rice
- Multi-grain cereals
- Oatmeal

- Whole-wheat bread
Changing your eating habits doesn't have to be a "sacrifice". You're more likely to stick to your high fiber diet by transitioning to higher fiber foods gradually. Start by adding an apple as an afternoon snack, eat multi-grain breakfast cereals and substitute whole wheat breads for white.
It sounds easy because it is!
