Many people wonder what is better to eat - bran or fiber.
Both of these products are considered healthy, but they are different.
Let's figure out what is better and in what situation to choose.
Fiber
Fiber is an indigestible dietary fiber that is needed to maintain intestinal microflora.
This means that fiber is not able to raise blood sugar and add extra calories.
Bran
Bran, in turn, is a crushed grain shell. It also contains indigestible carbohydrates, but also digestible ones.
If we talk about bran with added fruit, they will contain protein and microelements and will not contribute to weight loss.
Therefore, if the goal is to lose weight, then fiber is better. Bran is recommended for those who are looking for a source of vitamins, protein and minerals.
