Why is it important to consume foods with fiber?
We always hear that it is good to consume foods that contain fiber, but sometimes we do not know exactly why it is so important for our body. We can find fiber in a large amount of food and dried pineapple is one of them.
The consumption of dehydrated fruits has grown during the last years because fruits are healthy products, easy to manipulate and transport them to any place.

The amount of water recommended will depend on your weight, age, physical activity and even where you live.
Fiber is the one that passes through the intestinal tract and while doing this path sweeps all the toxins and wastes that our body does not need, eliminating them from the body through the feces.
Because fiber promotes digestion, it helps fight constipation that often happens by not consuming the recommended amount of fiber. In addition, constipation also increases the possibility of hemorrhoids.

Also, when you begin to consume greater amounts of fiber you can suffer gas, flatulence, and abdominal pains; this is because your body is not used to eating fiber, but these symptoms will be reduced until they disappear.
It is recommended that in each meal you eat foods that contain fiber, this way you will help the digestive process with each meal. It is usually recommended that during the day you eat fruits, vegetables, legumes and whole bread.
