Explains fiber with brick analogy from @alanlinplus

The creator explains the difference between soluble and insoluble fiber by using a simple analogy. He compares insoluble fiber to the 'bricks' that give poop its structure and soluble fiber to the 'mortar' that holds it together, makes it slick, and traps cholesterol and sugars. He illustrates what happens with only bricks (dry, crumbly) or only mortar (sticky mess) before concluding that both are needed for healthy digestion and calls on viewers to follow for more.

Transcript excerpt

Everyone is telling you what to eat for your fiber. I'm gonna teach you about soluble and insoluble fiber. Think of insoluble fiber as the bricks of your poop that stack up to create little building blocks. Those bricks give your poop shape so that you can keep it moving. While soluble fiber is the mortar that keeps your bricks together and makes it easier to slide out. And along the way, that mortar traps extra cholesterol and sugars to get rid of. Just bricks, then you'd get dry crumbly poop that won't wanna move. Just Better? You'll end up with a sticky mess that won't wanna stay together. Brix plus Mortar equals comfortably slick poops that run on schedule and keep your colon clean. Get your soluble and insoluble fibers and you'll be pooping like a champ. Follow and let me know if this was helpful.
