It's Wrong!
Soluble fiber is an indigestible carbohydrate from plants that dissolves in water. It forms a gel-like substance in the digestive system, which helps to slow down the absorption of glucose and cholesterol into the bloodstream. This can aid in regulating blood sugar levels and reducing cholesterol levels. Soluble fiber is found in foods such as oats, beans, fruits, and vegetables. It also promotes healthy digestion by adding bulk to the stool and preventing constipation.
