When we were all young, everyone loved to indulge on some delicious cereal and milk before they started their day.
Whether it was sugary cereals, or plain old corn flakes. We all loved starting our day with some tasty cereal and milk.
Nowadays, even adults like eating cereal, because I know I do. Cereal is still widely consumed by adults as a way to start their day, because we all still have that cereal loving kid inside of us!
But, many people start to become more health conscious when they turn into adults, more people start going on diets and more people start exercising to lose weight.
However many adults who are on diets still want to start their day with some tasty cereal and milk. This is where fiber rich cereal come in. This cereal is high in fiber, meaning that it will keep you much more full throughout the day as well as allow you to enjoy some cereal!
High fiber cereal is a very underrated yet useful form of cereal as it has just as much health benefits as nutritionally dense cereals, but also has great flavor.
Today we will be talking about the benefits and the reasons on why eating cereals high in fiber can benefit you when you are on a diet. We will also discuss the 10 best cereals that we have hand picked, for you to try if you are considering getting any high fiber cereals!
What is Fiber?
Fiber is a type of carbohydrate that the body can not digest, now don't worry it IS edible, the fiber simply stays intact when it passes through your digestive system.
Fiber has the effect of keeping you full when you eat it, there are 2 types of fiber, one helps you reduce your overall blood sugar levels (soluble fiber). The other type will help you pass food through your digestive system and help reduce constipation (insoluble)
Fiber is essential to have in your diet, it helps cleanse and maintain the health of your digestive system which in turn will lead to less bloating, less upset stomachs and more smooth trips to the washroom.
How Can Fiber Help my Diet?
The main reason why people fail their diets is because they simply can not take being hungry for a long period of time. I get this, as I have failed my diets in the past.
The number one way to combat being hungry on the diet, is to make sure you eat a lot of fulling foods, such as fiber!
Since fiber stays intact in your digestive system, it gives your body the feeling of being full. This makes dieting A WHOLE LOT EASIER as you don't have to worry about wanting to eat something.
I make sure I eat foods with a LOT of fibers so I can continue to enjoy my diet without having to constantly feel hungry!
Foods High In Fiber:
Beans
Oatmeal
Apples
Potatoes
Whole Wheat Grains
Cauliflower
High Fiber Cereals
As time passes, the fitness industry continues to grow, meaning a LOT of food companies will make foods that will cater to people who are on a diet.
You will see this when regular foods (such as cereal) have added nutrients to make them catered to health conscious individuals. High protein, high fiber, low carb, low calorie are all examples of this!
High fiber cereals fall under this category. Since cereal is probably someone's first meal of the day, it is CRUCIAL to make that meal filled with fiber, so you can start your day with a full stomach.
It is SUPER important to have fiber rich cereal when you're on a diet, especially when you tend to have busy and eventful days

I just want you to know that dieting is HARD and there are going to be many more obstacles than just being hungry. However, I am here to help you one step at a time.
The ONLY way to succeed in a diet is to stay disciplined, do things that you DON'T want to do for the sake of a better and healthier future.
The main takeaway that I want to say is that you should strive for a happy and healthy life, just because you're on a diet doesn't mean you can't have cake at a friend's birthday party, or have a little bit of junk food once in a while. Your life NEEDS to be balanced, we aren't professional bodybuilders, we are normal people who seek to have a healthy life while also enjoying it!
