You're always conscious of your calorie, fat, protein and sugar intake, but what about fiber? It's necessary to keep your digestive system regular and keep you fuller longer, as high-fiber foods break down slowly in your body. To be considered high fiber, a food has to contain 5 grams of fiber or more. Women need 25 grams of fiber per day and men should get 38 grams, and although you should be careful not to eat too much fiber, the average American only eats 15 grams each day. Snack time is the perfect opportunity to up your intake of healthy fiber-rich foods, so try these recipes to get your diet (and your body) back on track.
