High-fiber foods
2,554 foods
Foods that provide a meaningful amount of dietary fiber per 100 g. Fiber slows the absorption of carbohydrates, which is why many of these foods have a low glycemic load for their carbohydrate content. Every food on this list is ranked by its glycemic load per 100 g, lowest first, so the best choices for blood sugar come first.
