Fiber is one nutrient everyone could stand to get a little more of in their diet. The National Institutes of Health states that only 5% of the U.S. population gets enough fiber daily. Not only is fiber helpful for digestion, but it also plays a role in heart health, blood sugar control and healthy weight.
Avocados serve as the base for this simple lunch, and just a third of this creamy fruit has 11% of your daily fiber. Not to mention that it’s the only fruit with monounsaturated fat, which is beneficial to the heart and factors into appetite control. This vegetarian salad has two high-fiber ingredients — beets and lentils. Beets are a powerful root veggie that have been shown to lower cholesterol levels.
