The split is approximate and comes from USDA SR Legacy analyses where available. Soluble fiber dissolves into a gel and is the type most linked to cholesterol and blood sugar effects. Insoluble fiber adds bulk and keeps things moving.

Nobody should get all their fiber from one food. Gut bacteria respond to variety, and the fiber calculator shows a mixed day that reaches your number.

Frequently asked questions

How much fiber is in raisins?
1/4 cup of raisins, about 41 grams, contains 1.5 grams of dietary fiber. That is 3.7 grams of fiber per 100 grams and 5% of the 28 gram daily value.
Are raisins high in fiber?
Not especially. Raisins have 1.5 g per serving, which ranks 33 of 39 fruits in the FiberUp database. It still counts toward plant diversity, but the fiber in a meal will come from elsewhere.
Is the fiber in raisins soluble or insoluble?
About 27% of the fiber in raisins is soluble (0.4 g) and 73% is insoluble (1.1 g). Soluble fiber forms a gel that slows digestion and feeds gut bacteria; insoluble fiber adds bulk and speeds transit.
How many servings of raisins would reach a daily fiber goal?
It would take about 17 servings to reach 25 g (the adequate intake for adult women) and 26 servings to reach 38 g (adult men). Spreading fiber across several foods is easier and better for gut bacteria diversity.

Values are per typical serving from USDA FoodData Central and standard references, rounded to one decimal. Actual fiber varies with variety, ripeness, and preparation. This is general nutrition information, not medical advice.
