Vegetables: Fruits and vegetables are probably the best fiber supplement you can take. Found at the periphery of any supermarket, their hidden value has been exposed so the prices are going up. Get yours quick.

Any.: You just need to increase your fiber, soluble and particularly insoluble. Women should shoot for 35 grams daily from any source, particularly foods such as whole grain breads, fruits and vegetables. Supplements are fine in addition to this.
