                                Many people consume less than half of the recommended daily dietary fiber, a nutrient that plays a crucial role in health despite the fact that it is generally not digested or absorbed. This unique property, which distinguishes fiber from other carbohydrates, is vital for proper digestive function and overall well-being.
