Fiber can absorb moisture, soften feces and facilitate excretion. Whole wheat bread is an excellent source of bran. It's also a good way to sprinkle raw wheat bran on food. Vegetables and fruits are also good sources of fiber. If you lack fiber, eat the whole apple instead of just drinking apple juice.
