Where does the dietary fiber come from and how do I get enough dietary fiber?
The dietary fiber in food mainly comes from plant foods, such as fruits, vegetables, beans, nuts and various cereals
.
.
The food processing method and precision have a great influence on the retention of dietary fiber
.
Whole grains and wheat bran are rich in dietary fiber, while refined processed cereals are milled and processed, and the husk, aleurone layer, and germ are separated and discarded, resulting in some nutrients such as dietary fiber, B vitamins and minerals.

Eating refined grains for a long time can easily cause insufficient or even deficiency of B vitamins

It should be whole grains such as corn, black rice, oats and the like
.
.
(2) The amount of whole grains
Food ingredients should contain a larger proportion of whole grains
.
The US Food and Drug Administration stipulates that only foods containing ≥51% whole grains in ingredients can be claimed as "whole grain foods"

(3) Look at food labels
For example, words such as "whole oats", "whole grain corn" and "whole wheat flour" are written, and they are consistent with the ingredients on the food label
.
.
(4) Food ingredients
For example, "nutritious oatmeal" with more white sugar and vegetable oil powder is far less healthy than "pure oatmeal", so it is recommended not to use it
.
.
(5) Learn to identify
Such as exaggerated promotion of "multi-grain", "high-fiber", "100% wheat", etc.
, because these foods may only add bran in order to increase the content of dietary fiber, but the germ part is missing
