Tip of the Week - Increasing Fiber
The American Diabetes Association recommends 25-35 grams of fiber per day. To increase dietary fiber:
- choose whole fruits and vegetables over juices,
- choose whole grain bread over white bread,
- eat whole grain cereals more often than refined, high sugar cereals,
- select brown rice over white rice, and
- choose whole grain pasta over refined flour pasta.
A diet rich in fiber can help reduce cholesterol levels and promote weight loss.
