A desirable intake of dietary fiber is _____ grams daily, according to the american dietetic association.

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

A desirable intake of dietary fiber is 20-35 grams daily, according to the American Dietetic Association.

Explanation:

Dietary fiber has always been a part of a healthy, balanced eating lifestyle. Fiber has 2 types, soluble and insoluble. Soluble fiber is a gelatin-like substance when combined with water and when ingested, can help slow the travel of food in the gut, making you feel "full." Insoluble fiber or roughage is the bulk-forming type. It holds water in its structure, helping regulate the bowel movements.

Fiber, being a complex carbohydrate, can help lessen the risk of an increase of bad cholesterol and blood sugar. Examples of fiber-rich foods are whole grain products, barley, oats, grapes, etc.
