I don't want to start eating health food. How can I get more fiber without changing my diet completely?
You don't have to change your diet all at once.
Try making 1 small change at a time.
For example, if you eat 2 slices of white toast for breakfast, replace 1 of them with a slice of whole grain bread.
If you drink orange juice every day, eat an orange instead for 3 days of the week.
If you prefer salty snacks, try low-fat popcorn instead of potato chips.
Some people find it helpful to focus on adding a single high-fiber food at each meal or snack time. |
