Question

What is fiber?Give 2 examples​

Answer 1

Answer:

Fiber is a type of carbohydrate that the body can't digest. Though most carbohydrates are broken down into sugar molecules, fiber cannot be broken down into sugar molecules, and instead it passes through the body undigested. Fiber helps regulate the body's use of sugars, helping to keep hunger and blood sugar in check.

Answer 2

• The quantity of plant-based meals that human digestive enzymes are unable to completely break down is referred to as dietary fiber, also known as roughage.
• Dietary fibers are characterized by their solubility, viscosity, and fermentability, which affect how they are digested in the body.
• Dietary fiber comes in two forms: soluble and insoluble fiber, which may be found in legumes, whole grains and cereals, vegetables, fruits, nuts, and seeds.
• A diet high in fiber has been linked to better health and a lower risk of a number of ailments.
