Fiber helps your body to slow down digestion, which means you also slow down the delivery of glucose (blood sugar) to the blood stream. This is a good thing. Less insulin released means less opportunity for your body to store belly fat. Aim for at least 25 grams of fiber a day from fruits, vegetables, beans, legumes, brown rice, and whole grain bread, cereal, and pasta.
