How much fiber is in tortilla chips?
Tortilla Chips have 1.5 g of fiber per 1 oz (28 g). That is 5% of the daily value and a moderate amount for a grain.
Soluble vs insoluble
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.
