Vegetarian foods high in Dietary Fiber (Canadian (CNF))

People often treat fibre as something to tolerate rather than seek out. In fact, your gut bacteria ferment it into short-chain fatty acids that feed your intestinal cells and influence your metabolism. Most adults in developed countries eat less than half the 28 g Daily Value.

Fibre concentrates in whole grains, legumes, seeds, and vegetables: anywhere the plant stores structural material. This ranking shows raw density only; preparation methods matter. Cooking softens fibre but does not destroy it, while refining grains removes most of it.
