How much fiber is in bread, wheat or cracked wheat?

Bread, Wheat or Cracked Wheat delivers 1.7 grams of dietary fiber in a typical 1 large or thick slice serving, which makes it a small amount of fiber. That covers roughly 6% of a 28 gram daily reference intake, so it adds gently toward your fiber goal for the day.

Of that total, about 0.3 g is soluble fiber (which forms a gel in the gut and helps with cholesterol and blood-sugar) and 1.4 g is insoluble fiber (which adds bulk and supports regularity).

USDA FoodData Central FNDDS 2021-2023; FDC ID 2707720; total dietary fiber nutrient 1079. Total fiber is from USDA FNDDS; soluble and insoluble grams are category-based estimates, not lab-measured values.
