Answer 1

False.

Fiber isn’t digested and absorbed like other nutrients. It helps digestive health by adding bulk, speeding stool passage, and feeding gut bacteria (which produce beneficial short‑chain fatty acids), but the body does not “use the nutrients from fiber” in the same way it uses carbohydrates, fats, or proteins.
