Fibre


Plant fiber is part of that care and maintenance of the plant structure.

Fibers found inside plant cells. Parts of plants that we consume, bark, seeds, roots, leaves, trunk, all fibers are therefore contain soluble fiber and insoluble. Carbohydrates are also composed a rich source of fiber.
Fibre in the group of carbohydrates that separates the chemical structure and not allow them to dissolve in the human body and help penetrate blood.Fibre intestinal transport of food and also expand along the inner walls of the colon so that waste spend on food and fiber easy.Substancat pass undigested through the intestines and also diving water.Fore many times in the intestines and therefore mitigate enable normal stool.
Fibers are usually divided into two categories: insoluble fiber also referred to as the tharmëtuara fiber and soluble fiber also referred to as the viscous fiber.

Fibre to the prevention and treatment of constipation.
Hold water insoluble fibers in the colon, where it provides ease and expand the insoluble Gut.Fibrat also accelerate the time of passage of food through the intestine mbeburinave which means that harmful bacteria in the gut does not stick and can not be damage the inner walls of the intestine.
And wheat bran are insoluble fibers that are used to treat constipation.
Some food items that contain high percentage of fibers:

Fibre supplements (or fiber supplements) are considered to be a form of a subgroup of functional dietary fibre, and in the United States are defined by the Institute of Medicine (IOM). According to the IOM, functional fibre "consists of isolated, non-digestible carbohydrates that have beneficial physiological effects in humans".[1]
Fibre supplements are widely available, and can be found in forms such as powderstablets, and capsules. Consumption of fibre supplements may be for: improving dietary intake, lowering blood cholesterol, alleviating irritable bowel syndrome, reducing the risk of colon cancer, and increasing feelings of satiety.
Excessive fibre intake can lead to fluid imbalance, dehydrationmineral deficiencies, nutrient and drug interactions, and other medical problems.


The American Dietetic Association recommends that the average adult consume 25 to 38 grams of dietary fibre per day.[2] However, research has shown that the average American only consumes 14 to 15 grams per day.[2] To reach the recommended amount of fibre, consumption of dietary fibre from foods (e.g. plants, vegetables, legumes, and grains) instead of supplements is preferred because they contain additional beneficial nutrients and non-nutritive components (e.g. antioxidants and phytoestrogens). Nevertheless, a fibre supplement may be needed to prevent constipation when food intake is low, which is the case among inactive elderly. A cereal bran such as psyllium seed husk, or a synthetic fiber such as methylcellulose is often used in this case.
