I am sometimes asked, "Just what is fiber?" The answer is very simple. Fiber is the part of plant foods that the body does not digest. Adults should eat 25 to 30 grams of fiber per day. You will find fiber grams listed on the nutrition label of foods under Total Carbohydrate. Total Carbohydrates includes fiber, sugar, and starches but fiber will be separated out in the count.
