High fiber content in fruits?
Hi! I’ve increased the amount of fiber in my diet quite a bit in the past several months and lost about 15 pounds. My husband is trying to get on it too because of the many health benefits, not for the weight loss. He’s getting really caught up in which foods we eat that have the highest fiber. I have found several conflicting reports about some fruits and vegetables and I’m wondering if I can reach some sort of resolution.
Daily, we eat about a cup or more of each fresh fruit: mango, papaya, banana, strawberry, orange, apple, mixed salad greens, brussel sprouts, edamame (soy beans), and tomato. Sometimes we’ll have figs, pineapple, plums, and peach too (if we don’t have the others). We definitely eat other grains and beans too, but those generally have nutrition information written right on the back of the box– we’re looking for the “unwritten” fiber content of fresh fruits and veggies.
