Low-Residue Foods

Low-residue foods are easily digestible and leave little to no residue in the digestive tract. This can help to minimize digestive symptoms such as gas, bloating, and abdominal pain. Examples of low-residue foods include:

• White rice
• Oatmeal
• Bananas
• Applesauce
• Cooked vegetables

High-Fiber Foods

Fiber is essential for digestive health. It helps to bulk up stool, promote regularity, and feed beneficial bacteria. Soluble fiber forms a gel-like substance in the digestive tract, which can help to stabilize blood sugar levels, reduce cholesterol, and improve insulin sensitivity. Insoluble fiber adds bulk to stool and promotes regular bowel movements. Examples of high-fiber foods include:

• Fruits
• Vegetables
• Legumes
• Whole grains
• Seeds
