Fiber is good for you. Most people don't get their daily dose of fiber so that's why people take it. Many people take a fiber pill or they just mix it in with water.
Don't rely on fiber to lose weight. Just eat less and move more.
horses that are frequently exercised need feed with higher fiber and less suger,

Nuts are a great source of fiber. Nuts are also an easy topping for foods when people need more fiber.
