First of all, what are dietary fibres? 

Dietary fibre or roughage is a part of plant that cannot be digested by our body. 

There are two types of dietary fibre:

• Soluble Fibre: Soluble fibre dissolves in water, as the name suggests, and forms a gel-like substance. This fibre delays gastric emptying and thus keeps us full for a longer time. Soluble starch are found in fruit, oats, beans and barley. 

• Insoluble Fibre: As in the name, this fibre is not soluble in water. However, the main advantage of this fibre is that it adds more bulk to the stool and helps its easy passage. Such firbre are found in wholemeal bread, wheat bran, vegetables and nuts.
