A regular daily intake of fiber helps keep our bowels working regularly and prevent constipation. By providing bulk and softening stool, the pressure of hard bowel movements is eliminated.\nFibre forms a gel in the intestine, which results in the binding of bile acids, an important ingredient among the juices in the body. When an insufficient amount of bile acids reach the liver, the liver converts the cholesterol present into bile acids, there by reducing the cholesterol levels.\nFiber can also reduce chances of getting colon cancer. Increase of fiber in diet prevents overeating. Soluble fiber can lower cholesterol and control blood sugar levels in people with diabetes. In countries where the diet is high in fiber, bowel cancer, irritable bowel syndrome, overweight, heart disease and diabetes are very rare. Also as fiber is filling, high fibre foods stop you feeling hungry too soon.

Lots of water, raw veggies, some fruits, not a whole lot of them, they are full of natural sugars, very lean meats, not fried, broiled, boiled or baked. fresh frozen veggies, stay away from the starches. like breads, and potatoes, and pastas, whole grain breads are better for you if you have to have a sandwich .. but eat them in moderation.. stay away from fast food, eat a lot of salads, and the dressings on the side, just dip your salad in the dressing, that way you are not getting as much dressing.. \nWater, drink lots of water, flush out all the bad things in your system... watch how many diet drinks you drink too.. they are not good for you either.. teas are good for you , especially green teas.. they come in all sorts of flavors.. they are all very good.. good luck..

High fiber cereal with skim milk and a piece of fruit.  The fiber will help you feel full until your next meal or snack.

No.  Eating fiber rich foods like fruits and vegetables in place of low fiber foods would help you lose weight, though.  Fiber in real food helps you stay fuller longer and also keeps you regular.

Hmm...celery is very fibrous...normally fiber is good for constipation...so I'm not sure if that helps for retention. But...since it has so much bulk...it DOES help with cleansing your colon since the body cannot digest cellulose.

Fruits,vegetahles,whole grains and legumes,are very filling because they are high in fiber,protein is also very hunger satiating,and will keep you full longer,BUT FAT is the most superior for keeping you full because it satisfys the appetite very quickly.This is why you should add a tablespoon of healthy fats like olive oil or flaz to your meals.Vegetables and fruits fill you up without adding allot of calories.

Eat high fiber, ZERO FAT (or as little as absolutely possible). Fruits, vegetables, rice, chicken, turkey, etc. No red meat or pork. As little dairy as possible.

Eat more fiber.  That's cheap.\n\nSeriously though, colon cleansings are a total waste of money and are potentially very hazardous to your health.  I know some people swear by them to remove "all the toxins", but those same people have no idea what those "toxins" actually are.\n\nYou asked your question in English, so I'm going to assume that you eat an American type diet.  To specify, I mean way too much fat and not enough fiber.  So, to actually keep yourself healthy and decrease your risk of cancer, start reading labels and eating fiber.  Also, drink more water and exercise.  Both increase gastric motility.\n\nSeriously, stay away from crazy people who want to shove tubes where they don't belong.  Unless it's a GI doctor, and they only do it to look for stuff, not for fun.  And stay away from enemas too!  \n\nOkay, I'm done.  Good luck.

Try a whole grain oat cereal. That and just plain oatmeal.\n\nIf your need is more fiber, try psyllium.

Here is a good one:  http://www.wehealny.org/healthinfo/dietaryfiber/fibercontentchart.html\n\nAnother list here, but not as complete as the one above:  http://www.gicare.com/pated/edtgs01.htm\n\nThis site has a way you can search by the type of food (for anything you might find missing on the charts I guess!):  http://www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/foodcomp/search/

"A high-fiber diet may prevent development of diverticulosis. Many people, including doctors, tell patients with a history of diverticulitis to avoid nuts and seeds in the diet. However, there is no evidence that this is helpful to prevent the disease."\nFrom: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000257.htm\n--------------------------------------------------------------\n"Although not proven, the dominant theory is that a low-fiber diet is the main cause of diverticular disease. The disease was first noticed in the United States in the early 1900s. At about the same time, processed foods were introduced into the American diet. Many processed foods contain refined, low-fiber flour. Unlike whole-wheat flour, refined flour has no wheat bran.\n\nDiverticular disease is common in developed or industrialized countries—particularly the United States, England, and Australia—where low-fiber diets are common. The disease is rare in countries of Asia and Africa, where people eat high-fiber vegetable diets.\n\nFiber is the part of fruits, vegetables, and grains that the body cannot digest. Some fiber dissolves easily in water (soluble fiber). It takes on a soft, jelly-like texture in the intestines. Some fiber passes almost unchanged through the intestines (insoluble fiber). Both kinds of fiber help make stools soft and easy to pass. Fiber also prevents constipation.\n\nA high-fiber diet and, occasionally, mild pain medications will help relieve symptoms in most cases. Sometimes an attack of diverticulitis is serious enough to require a hospital stay and possibly surgery.\n\nFrom: http://digestive.niddk.nih.gov/ddiseases/pubs/diverticulosis/\n\nSee also:\nhttp://www.medhelp.org/forums/gastro/archive/1000.html
