Health Benefits of Soluble Fiber 1. Digestive Benefits Soluble fiber, particularly the “viscous” type that forms a gel, helps to slow and regulate the passage of food through the digestive system. This is thought to be one reason for the blunting of the glycemic response to carbohydrates when soluble fiber is present.Foods rich in this type of fiber include oatmeal, nuts, beans, apples, and blueberries. The health benefits include: Heart protection: Inside your digestive system, soluble fiber attaches to.Feeling satiated or full longer after meals: Soluble fiber slows down how quickly foods are digested, meaning most people feel full longer.
Studies suggest that when it comes to metabolic health, benefits of soluble fiber include its ability to not only lower blood cholesterol and triglycerides, but also blood glucose (sugar) levels.Unlike insoluble fiber that quickly passes through the digestive tract and bulks up the stool, the soluble type attracts water to form a gel during digestion, thereby slowing the process. Eating whole grains, seeds, nuts and fresh fruits and vegetables can deliver adequate amounts of soluble fiber to your diet to garner several benefits.
“Soluble fiber also attracts unhealthy fats to lower cholesterol levels — specifically LDL (the harmful type) — and can reduce the risk of heart disease,” White says.Soluble fiber. This type of fiber dissolves in water to form a gel-like material. It can help lower blood cholesterol and glucose levels.
Soluble fiber is found in oats, peas, beans, apples, citrus fruits, carrots, barley and psyllium.All types of soluble fibers slow digestion, so it takes longer for your body to absorb sugar (glucose) from the foods you eat. This helps prevent quick spikes in your blood sugar levels an.Soluble fiber may reduce blood cholesterol and sugar. It helps your body improve blood glucose control, which can aid in reducing your risk for diabetes.
Soluble fibers include gums, pectins, psyllium, beta-glucans and others. Insoluble fibers include lignin and cellulose. Different plant foods have varying proportions of soluble and insoluble.Many foods contain both soluble and insoluble fiber, and both types of fiber are important parts of a healthy diet, since both have been shown to help with appetite control, weight management, digestion, bowel movements, cholesterol balance, and so on. The job of soluble fiber is to create a gel in the digestive system.
The fiber in the Metamucil helps clean the bowel as it passes through the digestive system. Water soluble fiber sources include: berries, bananas, apples, legumes (soybeans, peas and beans), oats and some vegetables. Insoluble fiber – cannot be digested by the human body, as it doesn’t dissolve in water.Fiber Types and Health Benefits There are two types of fiber—soluble and insoluble—that are required for a healthy diet.
1 Soluble fiber dissolves in water and forms a gel that slows digestion. 2 This type of fiber has numerous health benefits. Eating soluble fiber may make you feel more full, which may help with weight management.
Solubility refers to the ability of fiber molecules to dissolve in water. The physiological benefits of insoluble fiber include increased satiety, decreased intestinal transit, and increased fecal bulking. The effect of soluble fiber on human physiology and cardiovascular health can be profound.Insoluble fiber does not dissolve. It is this type of fiber that moves through our system and carries out our waste.
Foods that are high in this kind of fiber include potatoes, cauliflower, nuts and beans. Both soluble and insoluble fibers are good for you, and important to include in your diet. They provide different benefits in different ways.

What’s the difference between soluble and insoluble fiber?
Fiber. It’s chief among the recommendations to prevent colon cancer.
But not many people know much about it, aside from the fact that they supposedly need more.
There are a lot of different kinds of fiber supplements available, if you are unwilling or unable to consume it in natural sources.
In this video, Dr. Paulson talks about the differences between two common types of fiber.
