I would like to find some examples of soluble and insoluble fiber.

There are several kinds of natural fibers which include
vegetable, wood, animal, and mineral.

Of the kinds of
fiber, there is soluble fiber and insoluble fiber. In terms of definitions of these
kinds of fiber:

Insoluble fiber...does not dissolve in water
because it contains high amounts of
cellulose.

Insoluble fiber
can be found in:

grain brans, fruit pulp, and vegetable peels or
skins

Whole wheat, nuts and
seeds also contain insoluble fiber.

If insoluble fiber does
not dissolve in water, then soluble fiber does dissolve in water.
Soluble fiber is found specifically in things like:

apples, oatmeal and oat bran, rye flour and dried
beans...

Soluble fiber is
also found in berries and bananas, as well as barley and some
vegetables.

In terms of the work done by fiber, insoluble
fiber speeds the process of food moving through the digestive process, and can help
prevent cancer. A wonderful benefit of soluble fiber is that it can lower cholesterol
levels in the blood stream because it helps the body get rid of
cholesterol.

In any event, fiber has been found to provide
excellent benefits to the body for improved health.
