Best source of Fiber

[girlpower]

Hi everyone

Doctor said I lack fiber and I need daily fiber intake.

Question, What are fiber-rich food / drinks that doesn't need much preparation? I can't prepare time consuming food since I am busy.

Please suggest. (let this thread also be a guide to the others in search for Fiber )

Thanks

Sis, usually mga fruits like Avocado, Apple (with skin ha) and oranges have lots of fiber. Since you are busy making money tee hee!), try those drinkable fibers.

I read that there's a new one coming out soon with smart fiber > read this.

hope this helps.

Vegetables and oatmeal is my suggestion

wholewheat bread, multigrain/ whole wheat cereals, pineapple, prunes, papaya, nuts, banana, air-popped popcorn, brown rice, beans, corn

read this too > Dietary Fiber Hope it helps.

Wheat germ is the quickest way, after capsules (C Lium)

Oatmeal is a g0od source; double purpose too since it is good for lowering cholesterol.

Broccoli.

okay tong thread na ito... kailangan ko din ito... kulang din siguro ako sa fiber kaya hindi regular ang bowel movement ko.

i am thinking of trying oatmeal nga kaso question lang po... okay lang ba haluan ng flavoring? like milk o milo? hindi ko kase makain yung oatmeal ng puro eh.... makukuha ko pa din ba fiber na kailangan ko?

tsaka gaano kadami ang kain ng oatmeal sa isang araw? sensya na kung madami tanong

TIA

i am taking EverNew Orange. its a fiber beverage made from wholesome fruits. it comes in sachets. mejo pricey but it really works. plus it tastes good, too. dati kasi i tried c-lium, yung sachets nila, di ko type ang lasa, lasang damo. i even took evernew when i was pregnant kasi lagi ako constipated nun.

Shake Off ng Edmark sis. Phyto fiber sya.

What I do is mix Quaker oats with oat bran and flaxseed meal (both bought from healthy options). Yun na breakfast namin- rich in fiber and omega 3. One solo bowl ang nauubos ko. Sabi ng nanay ko lumiit na tiyan niya- lumuwang na yung pantalon. Ako pansin ko I lost 2 pounds. Rich in fiber na nakakabawas pa ng weight.

usually oatmeal with muesli.
fruits and vegetables are also a must...

pero if you're a busy person, i think mas dapat sayo yung mga drinkable fiber nalang para at least may constant daily fiber intake ka...
narinig ko from a friend na may bagong fiber drink na lalabas -if am not mistaken, its dulcofiber.
try mo research about that, it would help on your daily intake of fiber

Shake Off ng Edmark sis. Phyto fiber sya.

sis i agree. super nagpapayat sakin itong shake off. kahit constipated talagang walang gawa. 6-8 hours sure nasa banyo. ang sarap ng feeling dahil ang gaan ng tiyan. promise mga sis. rty niyo ang shake off. medyo hindi lang masarap pero tolerable naman and healthy pa siya unlike dietpills.

green leafy vegetables. banana.

[mharickar]

banana for me.. yung color orange.. at least 2x a day kang kumain then kinabukasan ang ganda ng pupu mo.. (sorry.. hehe..)

here's a review of dulcofiber:

sorry but i do not like the taste, so sour for me.
The good thing is, it does not thicken too fast.
my tummy aches after a day, for me it is really like dulcolax, a laxative more than fiber supplement.

[ydnas]

hmm... interesting topic... since I've been searching good fiber supplement... 

my friends say that dulcofiber is good.... I guess it depends on the person...

I must try it myself and see how it taste....

rye bread. has 3x more fiber than whole grain bread

Switch to brown rice (healthy brown rice at SM is P51/kilo). It may seem more expensive but it's not only better for you, it contains more fiber and keeps you full longer. You also won't consume as much as it's heavier compared to white rice. Also, go for whole wheat bread. I also swear by the Oatmeal Diet:

Eat 1-2 servings of plain (NOT FLAVORED) oatmeal everyday
1 serving is just 4 tbsp of dry, uncooked oats!

For a perfect oatmeal, try these..
*mix it up with fresh fruits/berries like half a mango, a banana, strawberries
*add 1 tsp of Muscovado sugar or honey
*mix in dried fruits like plums, raisins, cranberries
*mix in chopped nuts like almonds, walnuts

Oats are high in beta-glucan content. This serves as a FAT SPONGE! It is a no-fail diet. Any kind of oats will do. I eat Quaker Oats Quick Cooking Oatmeal (only add hot water). It's only P93 for the biggest pack. It's best to have it for breakfast as it also helps us to avoid buying canned, processed food. No more hotdogs, corned beef, luncheon meat, etc for breakfast which is not only expensive but really bad for you. Save money and your health with oatmeal.
