Top 20 Vegetables High In Fiber

Fiber, also known as roughage, is the part of plant-based foods (such as - fruits, grains,  nuts, vegetables, seeds, and legumes) which the human body can't break down. Most people need upwards of 50 grams of dietary fiber per 1,000 calories consumed; most people in the United States get nowhere near this amount

Although the recommendations below don’t distinguish between these two types of dietary fiber, they are different and have distinct functions — insoluble fiber helps with constipation by increasing fecal bulk, and soluble fiber helps to reduce cholesterol and glucose levels.

Most plant-based foods, such as beans and oatmeal, contain both insoluble and soluble fiber. Nevertheless, the amount of each type varies in different plant foods.
