Question: I would like to on a high fiber and protein diet, what are some good foods to eat?

Answer: If you are planning on a high fiber and protein diet there are several foods you should consider. The high fiber is a good idea because high protein can contribute to constipation.

Some foods that are high in fiber include:

  • Fresh fruits
  • Fresh Vegetables
  • Legumes
  • Dried Fruits
  • Bran
  • Dark Breads

Food that are high in Protein include:

  • Meat (beef, chicken, fish, pork)
  • Eggs and Dairy
  • Beans
  • Nuts and Seeds

Now you just have to find a way to combine these two lists into meals that you will enjoy. If you are having trouble creating a menu that will satisfy you then you should consult a nutritionist who can help you.

Another good option while on this diet is to take an herbal supplement that will ensure the high protein diet will not cause you to become constipated. Many of these systems are available online or in health food stores. One of the common ones is called Colonix.
