Keep it real…choose fiber from whole foods

• Avoid “unnatural” sources of fiber, i.e. “fake” high fiber foods made with things like inulin & soluble corn fiber
• Replace “fiber” cereal bars, etc. with fruits, vegetables, whole grains & legumes (beans)
• Natural sources of fiber help you eat less, which in turn aids in weight loss
