Soluble fiber is fiber that dissolves in water. When you eat a plant, say an apple, it is the apple pulp that is the soluble fiber. These fibers form a gummy, jelly-like material when mixed with water in the intestines and are credited with lowering blood cholesterol levels and slowing the absorption of sugars into the blood, which is very beneficial to people with blood sugar imbalances, diabetes, and hypoglycemia. It is the soluble fiber that primarily produces methane and other gas byproducts of digestion, creating flatulence.
Insoluble fiber is the part of the plant, mostly the cell walls, which our digestive system cannot metabolize into energy. These fibers do not dissolve in water but rather absorb water like tiny sponges and help initiate peristalsis6 in the intestinal tract. It is well known that many pathologies, from hemorrhoids and constipation to colon cancer, can be prevented by the regular intake of foods high in insoluble fiber, often called whole foods.
