Answer: Fiber is the nutrient that helps your body to move food through your digestive system

Explanation: Fiber is a non-digestible carbohydrate naturally found in plants. A carbohydrate is a sugar. Fiber is made up of many sugars linked together in chains and knots that cannot be digested by our body. It helps to move the food through the digestive system smoothly. Since, we cannot digest it, the fiber passes into the intestine and absorbs water.
