Fiber helps you feel full, which helps you maintain a healthy weight. It also plays a role in healthy food digestion, prevents constipation, and is used to treat a number of health conditions, including diverticulosis, heart disease, and diabetes.\n<\/p>\n If you\u2019re having trouble getting enough fiber, a dietitian can help you learn how to incorporate more into your diet<\/a> for optimal gut health.\n<\/p>\n Verywell Health uses only high-quality sources, including peer-reviewed studies, to support the facts within our articles.
