It's Wrong!
Insoluble fiber is an indigestible carbohydrate from plants that does not dissolve in water. It passes through the digestive system largely intact, adding bulk to the stool and promoting regular bowel movements. This type of fiber helps prevent constipation and may also have a positive effect on digestive health by promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut.
