Are You Getting Enough Fiber? The Simple Secret to a Longer, Healthier Life

Add a little fiber.

Last week, we focused on adding protein to one meal each day. This week, we’re building on that habit by adding something else your body needs: fiber. See last week's article here

Fiber doesn’t have to mean changing your whole meal. Small additions count! Toss berries into your yogurt, add beans to a salad, choose whole-grain bread for your sandwich, or grab an apple, pear, or handful of nuts with your snack.

Already having eggs for breakfast? Add a piece of whole-grain toast or some fruit. Making chicken for dinner? Add broccoli, peas, or a sweet potato.

The goal isn’t to create the “perfect” meal. It’s to keep making the meals you already enjoy a little better, one addition at a time.

THIS WEEK’S DIG IN CHALLENGE:
Choose one meal each day and add one fiber-rich food.
