Classifying Fiber - Soluble and Insoluble. One way to classify fiber is by how easily it dissolves in water. Soluble fiber dissolves in water, which helps soften stools, making them easier to eliminate from the body. Soluble fiber is found in oats, citrus fruits, apples, barley, psyllium, flax seeds and beans. Insoluble fiber is found in whole grains, nuts, wheat bran and vegetables.
