Benefits of high-fiber foods

  1. The health benefits of high fiber foods are many. Eating a menu that's rich in fiber does a lot more than just make pooping easier. Eating fiber-rich foods lowers the risk of serious diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes and lowers blood pressure. A University of Havard study of more than 40,000 men showed that those with a high intake of fiber-rich foods were 40 percent less likely to develop cardiovascular disease compared to those with a low intake of fiber.

Quantities

  1. To get health benefits from fiber-rich foods, the following numbers are important. Men need about 38 grams of fiber per day. Men older than 50 years still 30 grams per day. Women need 25 grams of fiber per day. Women over 50 years old only 21 grams.
