Top 35 High-Fiber Foods to Help Your Digestive Health

5) Split Peas

There’s always confusion between split peas and green peas because they look very similar. They should because they come from the same tree and are basically the same thing. The only difference is that split peas are dehydrated. As such, the nutrients in split peas are more concentrated in the dry matter.

You will get around 8.1 grams of fiber after eating ½ a cup of cooked split peas. You can find them in many foods, including a very popular split pea soup from Mediterranean cuisine. Split peas can also be cooked in a crispy style for a delicious snack.
