per 1 cup, cookedHow much fiber is in grits?
Grits delivers 1.7 grams of dietary fiber in a typical 1 cup, cooked 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).
