Fine fiber foods and vegetables

Although crude fiber foods can effectively supplement the body's nutrition and make people feel full, if you consume too much crude fiber food, you will find yourself prone to constipation. Therefore, some people whose digestive function is not very sound should eat some fine-fiber foods, which can effectively promote their gastrointestinal digestion and absorption. What are the types of foods and vegetables that contain fine fiber?

What vegetables contain the most dietary fiber?

Among vegetables, root vegetables, such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, lotus roots, etc., are the richest in dietary fiber. Every 100 grams of potatoes contains up to 6 grams of dietary fiber, which can be said to be the first choice of root vegetables for treating constipation.

Brown rice and germinated polished rice, as well as whole grains such as corn, millet, barley, wheat bran (rice bran) and wheat flour (ingredients for black bread); in addition, root vegetables and seaweed are rich in dietary fiber, such as burdock, carrots, green beans, red beans, peas, potatoes and kelp. Dietary fiber is a plant component, and plant foods are the natural food sources of dietary fiber. Dietary fiber is abundant in vegetables, fruits, whole grains, beans, fungi and algae.

The following vegetables also contain more dietary fiber:

1. Various tender beans and tender pods are high-fiber foods. Although edamame has a soft texture after cooking, it does not prevent it from being the fiber champion among vegetables. Young broad beans and young peas have a more delicate and delicious texture, and green beans are also quite crisp, but their fiber content is really much higher than that of celery sticks.

2. In addition to tender beans, vegetables that appear to have no tendons, such as kale, spinach, amaranth, and broccoli, also have higher fiber content than celery stalks.

3. Kelp, seaweed, fungus, mushrooms and other fungi and algae.

4. Beans such as soybeans, adzuki beans, mung beans, broad beans, and peas.

5. Cabbage, carrots, greens, cucumbers, tomatoes, shiitake mushrooms, tomatoes, soybeans, citrus, apples, leeks, winter melon, garlic, day lily, bamboo shoots, etc. are all high-fiber or high-pectin foods.
