This is a good question. I have problems and need fiber too. You should always get brown bread. Try to incorporate my fruits and vegetables. Brown rice is good. Things like oatmeal...and bran flakes. Also you could try a soluable type of fiber that you just add to a drink...metamucil...etc.

brown bread bran most fruit, especially plums, dates, raisins, figs white meat(I think) My son suffers from constipation, I usually give him raisins which helps. Be careful with toast and bananas because they do contain fibre but they can make constipation worse.

apples are good as well as fruits mentioned in previous posts, particularly prunes. They are a "miracle fix" in this house for my son.
