Fiber is incredibly important. It leaves your stomach undigested and ends up in your colon, where it feeds friendly gut bacteria, leading to various health benefits.

Certain types of fiber may also promote weight loss, lower blood sugar levels, and fight constipation. Fortunately, increasing your fiber intake is relatively easy — simply integrate high fiber foods into your diet.
Here are seven high fiber foods that are both healthy and satisfying.
Pears
The pear is a popular fruit that’s both tasty and nutritious. It’s one of the best fruit sources of fiber. Fiber content: 5.5 grams in a medium-sized, raw pear, or 3.1 grams per 100 grams.
Strawberries
Strawberries are a delicious, healthy option that can be eaten fresh. Interestingly, they’re also among the most nutrient-dense fruits you can eat, boasting loads of vitamin C, manganese, and various powerful antioxidants. Try some in this banana strawberry smoothie.
Avocado
The avocado is a unique fruit. Instead of being high in carbs, it’s loaded with healthy fats. Avocados are very high in vitamin C, potassium, magnesium, vitamin E, and various B vitamins. They also have numerous health benefits. Try them in one of these delicious avocado recipes.
Apples
Apples are among the tastiest and most satisfying fruits you can eat. They are also relatively high in fiber.
Raspberries
Raspberries are highly nutritious with a very strong flavor. They’re loaded with vitamin C and manganese. Try blending some into this raspberry tarragon dressing.
Bananas
Bananas are a good source of many nutrients, including vitamin C, vitamin B6, and potassium. A green or unripe banana also contains a significant amount of resistant starch, a type of indigestible carbohydrate that functions like fiber. Try them in a nut butter sandwich for a hit of protein, too.
Carrots
The carrot is a root vegetable that’s tasty, crunchy, and highly nutritious. It’s high in vitamin K, vitamin B6, magnesium, and beta carotene, an antioxidant that gets turned into vitamin A in your body.
