Why is fiber consumption important?

Fiber is related to a reduction in the risk of developing degenerative diseases, a balance of the intestinal microbiota, improved digestion, and decreased constipation.

Fiber is a nutritional component of plant origin, mostly complex carbohydrates and lignin. 

Adequate fiber consumption can be obtained through diet. As long as it is accompanied by an adequate intake of water, the general recommendation indicates a consumption of 2 liters per day. Likewise, it provides satiety by delaying gastric emptying and regulating your blood sugar levels.

A Yogi Superfoods product that provides you with fiber are the protein bars in the flavors of:
of superfoods
organic cocoa

This is your cue to increase your fiber intake through 4-5 servings of vegetables and 3-4 servings of fruit daily, plus superfood foods like Yogi Super Foods protein bars. Remember, increase your consumption progressively so that your body gets used to it.
