HƯƠNG SƠN (THEO HEALTHSHOTS) |

Fiber is an important part of a healthy diet, helping to maintain a healthy digestive system and control weight.

Grapefruit

Grapefruit is a low-calorie fruit that is high in fiber. Half a grapefruit provides about 2-3 grams of fiber, which helps keep you full and control your appetite.

Many studies have also shown that eating grapefruit can aid weight loss thanks to its ability to reduce blood sugar levels and increase metabolism.

Apple

Apples are high in fiber, especially pectin, a soluble fiber that helps lower cholesterol and control blood sugar. An average apple has about 4-5 grams of fiber.

Eating an apple before a meal can help you feel full faster and limit the amount of calories you consume during the meal.

Raspberry

Raspberries are one of the highest fiber fruits, with about 8 grams of fiber per cup. They are also low in calories and rich in antioxidants, which help control sweet cravings while still providing a feeling of fullness, which can help with weight maintenance.

Pear

Pears are a fruit rich in insoluble fiber, which helps improve digestion and prevent constipation. A medium-sized pear contains about 5-6 grams of fiber. Not only does pear help maintain a feeling of fullness, it also has a high water content, contributing to effective weight loss without worrying about dehydration.

These fruits are not only rich in fiber but also provide many essential nutrients, helping you control your weight and maintain overall health.
