Fiber does not stay in the human body because of the inability to digest it, similar to cellulose, which is found in plants. The fiber is removed from the body as quickly as possible, most commonly through the intestines, or colon. As it travels to the anus, it collects other wastes that may be trapped to the intestinal walls. The result is the fiber being removed via a bowel movement. Fiber is recommended to be ingested daily in order to regulate a healthy colon, such that the colon may help process digestible foods in a more efficient manner.
