19. Beans, Peas, and Lentils
Otherwise known as pulses, beans, peas, and lentils are one type of food group that is also considered to be the most fiber-packed of all. Just one cup of cooked navy beans has 19.1 grams of fiber, which is equivalent to 76% of the adult recommended daily intake. Moreover, most of them have soluble and insoluble fiber, adding bulk and weight to stool to make it easier to pass stool when needed. Pulses are also some of the least expensive food items on the market as well, providing you with not only a natural but economical way to include more fiber in your everyday diet.
