Soluble Fiber
- Digestive Health: Soluble fiber dissolves in water to form a gel-like substance in the digestive tract. This gel helps slow down the digestion process, which can be beneficial for people with diarrhea or loose stools as it can help absorb excess water and form firmer stools.
- Cholesterol Management: Soluble fiber can help lower LDL (bad) cholesterol levels by binding to cholesterol molecules in the digestive tract and preventing their absorption into the bloodstream. This can reduce the risk of heart disease.
- Blood Sugar Control: Soluble fiber can help regulate blood sugar levels by slowing the absorption of sugar and improving insulin sensitivity. This is particularly important for individuals with diabetes or those at risk of developing diabetes.
- Satiety: Foods high in soluble fiber tend to make you feel full and satisfied, which can help with weight management and portion control.
