Top 35 High-Fiber Foods to Help Your Digestive Health

12) Kidney Beans

As noted, beans are fundamental in nutrition if you plan to increase your fiber intake. The type of fiber they have is soluble and excellent for your heart. Kidney beans are not the exception. They don’t have as much fiber as navy beans and black beans, but they are also very cheap to buy and relatively easy to find in any store. Kidney beans may provide you with a boost of protein with minimal fat.

You will get around 6.5 grams of fiber after eating only ½ a cup of cooked kidney beans. They are so popular, cheap, and easy to find that you will probably eat more than ½ a cup. The preparation is similar to other legumes, and you can prepare delicious curry recipes with this ingredient.
