When You Work Out Regularly
If you’re training hard and focusing on protein and carbs, you might be forgetting one key nutrient—fiber! A diet rich in fiber can boost your performance, improve digestion, and even support fat loss. Let’s dive into why fiber is essential for active people and how to get enough of it.
What Is Fiber?
Fiber is a type of carbohydrate that your body doesn’t fully digest, but it plays a huge role in your health. There are two types:
✔ Soluble fiber – Found in oats, beans, and fruits; helps regulate blood sugar and cholesterol.
✔ Insoluble fiber – Found in whole grains, nuts, and vegetables; supports digestion and gut health.
