    This passage is about the components of a balanced diet and the importance of fiber. It states that a balanced diet contains the correct amounts of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, along with vitamins, minerals, water, and dietary fiber. The fiber is important because it helps move food through the gut via muscular contractions called peristalsis. Fiber also helps prevent constipation and reduces the risk of certain diseases. Fiber consists largely of a molecule called cellulose that is found in plant cell walls and cannot be digested because humans lack the necessary enzymes.
