Because dietary fiber contributes very few calories, high-fiber foods, such as fruits and vegetables, are lower in calories than many low-fiber foods.Roughage also helps to keep you feeling full while eating fewer calories because it provides a lot of volume and it swells inside your stomach and digestive tract.
