A food labeled 'high fiber' has at least how much fiber per serving?

5 grams or more per serving.

  1. 1 gram
  2. 5 grams ✔
  3. 15 grams

Why: ADA explains 'high fiber' means 5 grams or more per serving, and 'good source of fiber' means 2.5 grams or more. Fiber helps you feel full and manage blood glucose.

Huh, didn't know that: ADA says most people don't eat enough fiber; healthy adults need about 25 to 38 grams a day on average.
