Fiber and detox

It is baffling how so many fiber supplements claim to be for detox when in fact they do not have the type of fiber involved in detox.

Soluble fiber is what most supplements contain.

Insoluble fiber is the one that is good for detox, yet it is very rarely found in supplements. Good ways to get it are from the skins of vegetables, from seeds like chia or flax (flax for women only), nuts, etc.
