Foods low in fiber

Per serving, lowest first. Bars show the share of the Daily Value (28 g a day).

Per 100 g, lowest first. Bars show the share of the Daily Value (28 g a day).

Per serving, lowest first. No daily amount is set, so bars compare each food with the highest food in this ranking.

Per 100 g, lowest first. No daily amount is set, so bars compare each food with the highest food in this ranking.

Per 100 kcal: the same calories of each food, for a fair comparison. Bars compare each food with the highest food in this ranking.

Only foods with a measured value are ranked. Herbs and spices are left out: by the teaspoon they are low in almost everything. Servings differ in size, so a food can rank low per serving and high per 100 g. Check both.

Foods high in fiber

Who needs a low-fiber diet?

A low-fiber diet is used for a short time during flare-ups of irritable bowel syndrome, diverticulitis, Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis, and after some kinds of bowel surgery, says MedlinePlus, the US National Library of Medicine’s health site. It is used for longer when the bowel is narrowed or blocked.

A provider or dietitian sets the limit, for example 10 to 15 g of fiber a day. For breads, crackers, cereals and pasta, MedlinePlus gives less than 2 g of fiber per serving. Follow the amounts your own care team gives you.

For everyone else

This ranking is for people who were told to cut back. The FDA Daily Value for fiber is 28 g a day.
