Dietary fibers (sometimes spelled fibres) are grouped depending on their solubility into soluble and insoluble fibre. Soluble fiber has shown to reduce glucose and cholesterol levels and therefore it is considered to have protective role against heart disease and diabetes. Insoluble fibre helps to prevent constipation and promote bowel movement. Fiber as in food nutrition plays an important role in elimination and clearance of estrogens and toxins from the body.
