Why is meeting your daily fiber requirement so essential?

  • Digestive Health : Fiber keeps things moving! It supports regular bowel movements, reduces constipation, and fosters a balanced gut microbiome, all of which reduce the risk of digestive issues and colon cancer.
  • Blood Sugar Control : Fiber helps in slowing down glucose absorption, which helps prevent sudden spikes and lowers the risk of type 2 diabetes.
  • Weight Management: By increasing satiety (feeling of fullness), fiber helps control appetite, supporting calorie control and weight management—aiding both weight loss and maintenance.
  • Heart Health : Fiber is great for the heart. It helps reduce levels of LDL (bad) cholesterol, supports healthy blood pressure, and can lower the risk of heart disease.
