  2. Fiber is so important for anyone who wants to keep fit and stay healthy. Flaxseeds are one of my favorite forms of fiber. They are cheap, easy to add to different foods, and they are full of other nutrients as well. I agree that drinking enough water when taking fiber is important. Otherwise, it can have the opposite effect! Don't need that! :)
