How much fiber is in beans and brown rice?

Beans and Brown Rice delivers 6.6 grams of dietary fiber in a typical 1 cup serving, which makes it a good source of fiber. That covers roughly 24% of a 28 gram daily reference intake, so it can make a real dent in your fiber goal for the day.

Of that total, about 1.2 g is soluble fiber (which forms a gel in the gut and helps with cholesterol and blood-sugar) and 5.4 g is insoluble fiber (which adds bulk and supports regularity).

USDA FoodData Central FNDDS 2021-2023; FDC ID 2709033; total dietary fiber nutrient 1079. Total fiber is from USDA FNDDS; soluble and insoluble grams are category-based estimates, not lab-measured values.
