Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Eating more fruits and vegetables and not removing the edible peels is the safest and healthiest way to increase fiber intake as it provides natural sources of fiber along with other essential nutrients. Enriched grains such as Rice Krispies and Saltines may contain added sugar and lack other important nutrients. Bran and fiber supplements may cause gastrointestinal discomfort and interact with other medications. Reading the labels of grain products and buying those labeled "wheat flour" may not be a reliable indicator of fiber content as it only indicates the type of flour used and not necessarily the fiber content.
