Everything you need to know about dietary fiber (Wala system!)
Diet trends change every few years, but low-carb diets always remain.
Studies conducted on the subject found that a diet low in carbohydrates was linked to a decrease in cholesterol levels and blood pressure, helped in weight loss and even helped in controlling sugar levels.
And yet a diet low in carbohydrates can also be low in dietary fiber, which helps the digestive system, prolongs the feeling of satiety and, of course, is good for your diet.
So, so that you don't fall into this common trap, we have collected for you 7 foods that are both low in carbohydrates and rich in dietary fiber.
Or in short, a winning combination.
Flaxseeds Flaxseeds
are mainly famous for their contribution to the health of the digestive system and they contain dietary fiber, protein and omega 3 fatty acid. They are also considered an excellent source of lignan - a phytochemical found to have the potential to slow tumor growth and may be able to reduce the risk of cancer.
A tablespoon of flax seeds has about 3 grams of fiber.
Avocados Avocados
help lower cholesterol, reduce the risk of heart disease and cancer, and help maintain blood sugar levels - along with other amazing health benefits.
One of them is the amount of dietary fiber: avocado contains about 7 grams of fiber per 100 grams - twice as much as broccoli.
Chia seeds
Chia seeds are considered a source of complete protein, because they contain all the essential amino acids.
They are also known as satiety generators, due to their incredible absorption capacity - each such grain can absorb water in an amount that exceeds 10 times its weight, thus keeping you full for a longer time.
Chia seeds are a whole grain and much healthier than other grains.
Each tablespoon of chia seeds has about 5.5 grams of dietary fiber.
