1 Fill up with Fiber and let yourself Fill up with fiber! GOoOoooo! Lindsay Orbeta, MS, RD
2 8 great tips for a high fiber diet 1. Eat whole fruits instead of drinking fruit juices 2. Replace white rice, bread, and pasta with brown rice and whole grain products. 3. Including oatmeal for breakfast a few times a week is another easy way to up your fiber intake add a sliced banana and 1 tbspn of walnuts, and you ll add another 5g of fiber. 4. Snack on raw vegetables instead of chips, crackers, or pretzels. Eat baby carrots and cherry tomatoes dipped into hummus as an afternoon snack three days a week. You'll fill up the empty space in your tummy while getting about 5 grams of fiber in each cup of veggies. 5. Try a vegetarian meal Substitute beans with rice or lentils for meat 2 times per week. Try bean soups (such as lentil or black bean, or turkey chili) 6. Switch to whole grain crackers. You'd never think a tiny cracker can make a difference, but one regular whole wheat cracker has 1/2 gram of fiber. Ten crackers give you 5 grams of fiber. So next time, spread your peanut butter on whole grain crackers (look for brands that proclaim they're trans fat free) instead of bread for a different taste treat. 7. Add kidney beans or chickpeas to your next salad. A quarter cup adds an additional 5 grams of dietary fiber, notes Lisa Andrews, R.D., a nutritionist at the VA Medical Center in Cincinnati. 8. Every week, try one "exotic" grain. How about amaranth, bulgur, or wheat berries? Most are as simple to fix as rice, yet packed with fiber and flavor. Mix in some steamed carrots, broccoli and golden raisins toss with olive oil and a bit of feta cheese, maybe throw in a can of tuna and you've got dinner! Or, serve as a side dish to chicken or fish. Make sure all grains you try are whole grains cous cous (for example) has 2 versions: semolina and whole wheat.
3 Identifying whole grains: What words to look for on packages Words you see on packages whole grain [name of grain] whole wheat whole [other grain] stone ground whole brown rice oats, oatmeal (including old-fashioned oatmeal, instant oatmeal) wheat berries What they mean YES -- Contains all parts of the grain, so you're getting all the nutrients of the whole grain. wheat flour semolina durum wheat organic flour multigrain (may describe several whole grains or several refined grains, or a mix of both) MAYBE -- These words are accurate descriptions of the package contents, but because some parts of the grain MAY be missing, you are likely missing the benefits of whole grains. enriched flour degerminated (cornmeal) bran wheat germ NO -- These words never describe whole grains.
