Fiber w/o too much sugar

How do I get more fiber...

Sued0nim

Raspberries are my preference

Beans. Pulses.Wholegrain and wholemeal. Nuts - almonds, pecans, and walnuts specifically
Jacket potato - the skin is the important bit.
Dried fruit.
Bran based cereal and other healthy cereal options.
Porridge.
Fruit and veg. At least 5-a-day portions and the crunchier, the better.

Fruits and vegetables and beans are all good sources of fibre.

Onions, leeks, bananas and artichokes all have inulin which is a type of pre-biotic fiber. Feeding the healthy bacteria in your lower colon.

Oatmeal for breakfast. I buy inulin in powder form and ad to my oatmeal in the morning. You can also ad flax and chia seeds to increase the amount of fiber and nutrition.

Whole grain bread. I buy whole grain sprouted bread. Way more nutrition in anything sprouted whichb4-5 grams per slice.

A handful of tree nuts or peanuts per say.

Whole grain pastas and brown rice. Eat the potato skins.

A few ideas here.

Flax/ linseed, chia. Low sugar berries.

Pasta oatmeal banana way too much sugar and starch.

PSA: "feeding the healthy bacteria in your lower colon" = painful bloating and eye-watering toxic gas for many people . If that's not you, there's lots of products (granola bars and other snack items, pastas, cereals/oatmeals, yogurts) which have added inulin (you might also see chicory root extract) to increase the fiber content that are good possibilities to add, though many might have more sugar than you're looking for.

Other than that, as everyone else has said, beans/pulses, whole grain breads and crackers, some cooked grains like bulgur and farro, many greens and other vegetables, avocado, berries, flax, and bran cereals are all good choices that are relatively low in sugar.

I get most of mine from fruits and vegetables. The best source -- blows my fiber numbers out of the park when I have them -- are beans/lentils, however. Whole grains can be good too.

You get more fiber by exploring foods that have fiber, and deciding which you will incorporate into your food supply. My similar exploration led me to incorporate some fiber into my breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks. It all adds up and I'm a regular guy.
