honest question: does anybody here actually eat the recommended daily amount of fiber most of the time?

>> No.8968837

>>8968829
Yep. It helps when you take soluble fiber with your water.

>> No.8968842

I started eating more fiber and my bowel movements were more firm and cleaner, they'd come out in one long stroke and didn't smell as bad and also I didn't need to wipe afterwards so I didn't have to shower to prevent swampass anymore.

10/10 would eat fiber again

I do eat a lot of rice and the one I use the most is the integral short grain one I buy at the Asian grocery shop so I guess I do
Whenever I have trouble pooping I eat a whole bowl of it and next morning I run to the shitter

as long as you get 1g fiber per 100 calories
you're ok.

Get REAL fiber, not "sugar" fiber

FWIW I'm right

I have to due to my diverticulosis.

When I'm feeling health minded I'll take fiber supplements like a bar or powder. Helps clean you out a bit.

-1x roast chicken, skinned, deboned and cut into chunks
-1x leek
-2x brown onions
-1x carrot
-1/2 pound pearl barley
-68 fl oz chicken stock
-Oyster sauce to taste

Finely chop vegetables and sautee with garlic, salt and pepper

Place in pressure cooker with all other ingredients, cook for 45 minutes

Eat, 10-12 hours later have a mind bending bowel movement

Have been having traditional style soup 3-4 nights a week lately. Shitting massively and zero residue on wiping. YMMV.

>> No.8969121

Probably. I've never really counted, but on most days I eat 5-10 servings of fruits and vegetables, plus a tablespoon of psyllium husk in my morning yoghurt-banana shake.

Haven't once been constipated since.

I think so. I bought a bulk box of chia seeds and sprinkle spoons of them over everything I eat.

>"daily fibers"
no suck thing. fibers are there to make the shit soft, it's not about eating the amount once a day it's about having some with every meal. And it requires enough water or it has the opposite effect.
