7. Leafy Greens
Leafy greens such as spinach, Brussels sprouts, and broccoli are rich sources of insoluble fibers that add bulk to stool, making them softer and easier for the body to get rid of. One cup of cooked spinach, which can be added to quiches, pies, or soups, contains almost 17% of the recommended daily intake of fiber. Meanwhile a stalk of broccoli (150g) which can be cooked and added to soups, stews, and salads, covers for another 16% of the body’s daily requirement for fiber.
