Soup, Lentil delivers 9.4 grams of dietary fiber in a typical 1 cup serving, which makes it a good source of fiber. That covers roughly 34% 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 1.9 g is soluble fiber (which forms a gel in the gut and helps with cholesterol and blood-sugar) and 7.5 g is insoluble fiber (which adds bulk and supports regularity).
