Answers
The term fiber refers to carbohydrates that cannot be digested. Fiber is found in the plants we eat for food — fruits, vegetables, grains, and legumes. Sometimes, a distinction is made between soluble fiber and insoluble fiber: Soluble fiber partially dissolves in water and has been shown to lower cholesterol.
There are two types of fiber:
Soluble, found in fruits and vegetables, beans and oats. These dissolve in water and help keep total cholesterol under control.
Insoluble, found in whole grain foods such as wheat bran. These help us feel fuller and may help reduce risk of colon cance
