In recent years, the question of what are the best fiber rich foods is becoming more important; especially since we have increased our consumption of white bread, rice and pastas. Refined ingredients tend to get logged in the colon causing grief, flatulence and restricting bowel movement. Hence high fiber foods are highly recommended to keep your colon healthy. On an average, women need to consume 25 grams of fiber a day, while men need at least 38 grams. We take a look at foods that are at the top of the best fiber rich foods list and tell you how much you need. *Images courtesy: © Thinkstock photos/ Getty Images
