I understand the principle of starting a meal with soluble fiber -- but, I was wondering, how much should it be? For example, would it be ok to eat a few bites of rice and then other things and then come back to the rice -- or should you eat, say a whole serving of rice and then the rest of your meal?
Are soy and rice milk good to start a meal off with in that way also? Would a few ounces be enough, or should it be, say, 8 ounces?
I bought some corn puffs today which are whole grain. I'm trying to find things my daughter can carry with her to eat alone and also before eating a bar (which will be more substantial than eating just soluble fiber ) -- Would these corn puffs , and Barbara's Puffins (which are also corn flour and corn bran) and brown rice cakes work for this or do they have too much insoluble fiber?
Is fruit juice sweetened rice bread (made with brown and white rice flour) a good soluble fiber starting food or does it also have too much insoluble fiber? Its hard because my daughter likes to eat very healthy and doesn't want sugar or additives and also she is avoiding wheat for now, since she might have a problem with that too. I appreciate any help you can give me on this.
