Soluble Fiber and Insoluble fibre:

A healthy diet should contain both Soluble Fiber and Insoluble Fiber. Total Fibre or Dietary Fibre is a combination of Soluble Fibre and Insoluble Fibre. The US recommended daily allowance (RDA) for Women (18 to 50) is 25 grams and 21 grams (51 years plus). US RDA for Men is 30 to 38 grams. The thumb rule is that for every 1,000 calories consumed you need 14 grams of fibre.
