1. Up your legumes game<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Legumes<\/a>\u00a0are a great source of fiber! Some examples of legumes include: chickpeas, kidney beans, soybeans, and peanuts. You can consider including these legumes into your daily meals, or even replacing your meat with legumes for a healthier options.<\/p>\n

2. Choose brown, not white<\/strong><\/h3>\n

White rice refers to rice with its\u00a0husk, bran and germ<\/a>\u00a0removed through a milling process to prolong its shelf-life, while brown rice has them\u00a0intact<\/a>. The husk, bran and germ in the brown rice contains nutrition such as fiber. To include more dietary fiber in your daily meals, you can start slowly changing your white rice to brown rice, and aim to have at least half of your entire portion as brown rice, if not all.<\/p>\n

3. Wholegrains are the best grains<\/strong><\/h3>\n

When looking out for bread or pasta, look for whole wheat or whole wheat flour in the first item of the ingredient list. Some products will have labels indicating wholegrains too! They are healthier options as compared to processed choices, which tend to have high glycemic index.<\/p>\n

4. Eat more fruits and vegetables<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Add vegetables to your favorite meats or have fresh fruits instead of cakes and ice creams as your desserts. Moreover, fruits and vegetables are also\u00a0rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 additional reasons to increase your intake of these foods!<\/p>\n

5. Snack wisely<\/strong><\/h3>\n

If you have a habit of snacking, pack your choices with nuts, dried fruits, wholegrain biscuits or fresh fruits, and avoid unhealthy options such as crackers, sweet candies, or chocolates.<\/p>\n

6. Dietary fiber supplements<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Taking\u00a0dietary fiber supplements<\/a>\u00a0is another way to increase your daily fiber requirement. However, do note that they should not replace your food sources of dietary fiber entirely as food sources contain a variety of other essential vitamins and minerals too. Some examples of ingredients in dietary fiber supplements include\u00a0resistant maltodextrin<\/a>, psyllium, wheat dextrin, inulin and methylcellulose.<\/p>\n
