Everything You Should Know About Soluble Fiber and Weight Management

In the battle for weight loss, you have new ammunition. Fiber is an often overlooked ingredient in effective weight loss. While everyone else is looking at calories and carbs, you should be concentrating on getting more fiber if you want to lose weight.

What is Fiber?

Fiber is the portion of plant foods that your body can’t digest. Many kinds of food contain fiber, such as fruits, vegetables, grains, legumes, nuts and seeds. There are two kinds of fiber; soluble and insoluble. Insoluble fiber aids your digestive system in passing food through. Soluble fiber helps your body rid itself of fat. For the purposes of weight loss, you want to focus on soluble fiber.

How Soluble Fiber Aids in Weight Loss

Once you ingest soluble fiber, it binds with water in your body. This creates a kind of viscose gel in your stomach. When this occurs, your stomach expands just as it does when you eat a full meal. You end up feeling full and sated without having to eat as much food. Now, this soluble fiber gelatinous material is very slow to empty out of your stomach move through your system. As it is being processed, it does two things; one, it helps you feel fuller longer. Two, it slows the rate in which sugar is released into your bloodstream. This added benefit helps control insulin production and reduces how much of your food is stored as fat.
