Fiber-tastic!

Fiber-tastic!
I feel like fiber is everywhere now! Activia with fiber, Fiber Plus Bars, Smart Taste (white pasta enriched with fiber and calcium) and the list goes on and on! Every time I turn on the TV there is another commercial driving the point home that fiber is completely awesome and we need to jump on the band wagon… that is if you want to keep your digestive track happy!

But you know what, most of these new products are things that have fiber added to them or they were concocted in some lab to make us have to… well, you know. Anyway, they just are not natural. So, if you are not into Dr. Frankenstein’s version of fiber, there are plenty of things out there that you can find in nature that already have fiber in them. And you know what?! COFFEE IS ONE OF THEM!

Yes, it’s true! Coffee is fiber-tastic! According to a recent study coffee contains high levels of soluble fiber. How high? Well, it’s said to be higher than the levels found in wine and in orange juice! So go ahead and have that cup of coffee… your digestive track is waiting!
