This is very good question! Fibres have many advantages. Fibres have probably negative calories also. That means fibres consume some food material in them. Most probably fat is adsorbed with the fibres. Some of this fat is degraded as used as a food by the bacteria in the large intestine. Some of the fat is discarded along with the fibres in the faeces. Fibres also adsorb the toxins, that are present in your food.

Soluble fiber does this by engulfing the bad fats that clog cardiac vessels into it in the digestive system. Since fiber cannot be digested, this fiber-fat complex is able to be passed out of the body via fecal matter.
