I too am now extremely confused about fiber       05/18/10 05:19 AM Edit Reply Quote Allisonmary Reged: 01/03/04 Posts: 533 I am getting more and more confused about insoluble and soluble fiber. I know that we are supposed to have lots of SF and as much IF as we can tolerate with a SF base. Foods that have more soluble fiber rather than insoluble fiber are generally safe. (like sweet potatoes, bananas, some oatmeals) These do not have to be eaten with a soluble fiber base correct? Now farina which has wheat germ in it (insoluble) is not an insoluble fiber food correct? becasue it also has soluble fiber and should generally be safe for most right? I asked a few weeks ago about bagels containing the insoluble fiber cellulose fiber, which does seem to cause me some problems but why? If it also has the soluble fiber and is not whole grain? Wouldn't it be similar to eating sweet potatoes or bananas that has soluble and insoluble? When people talk about eating things like mangos do they eat them alone or is this ok to just eat? Some people cant eat any insoluble fiber is this true? I love rice but Im getting alittle sick of having it breakfast lunch and dinner lol. Sorry if my questions are stupid Im just getting more and more confused. Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
