In addition to helping move things through (and out of) your body, fiber also helps keep you full and
slows down your body's absorption of sugar. Basically, you want to make sure you're getting enough
of it for a bunch of reasons. And it's best to get your fiber from whole food sources.

6. For making salads that don't suck.

As BuzzFeed Health has reported, Americans tend to get more than enough saturated fat (the kind of
fat in meat and dairy), but not nearly enough unsaturated fat from fish, nuts, seeds, and other plant-
based sources. Unsaturated fats are really good for your heart, so eating more of them when you can
is a great call.
