INCREASE FIBER IN YOUR DIET

Adding fiber to your diet may be easier than you think. Here are some tips that can help you get started:

* Look at the fiber content on the Nutrition Facts Label on packaged foods.
Good sourced of fiber have at least 2.5 grams of fiber per serving.

* Substitute higher fiber foods, such as whole-grain breads, brown rice, whole-wheat pasta, and fruits and vegetables, for lower fiber foods, such as white bread, white rice, candy, and chips.

* Start your day with a high-fiber breakfast cereal, such as bran cereal or oatmeal. Look for cereals that contain at least 5 grams of fiber per serving. Add fresh fruit for an extra fiber boost. 

As Always, To Your Health!

P.S.  Here's a video about adding a high fiber diet to your life.
