How to Get Plenty of Fiber
If you have been eating very little fiber, then chose a goal of 15 – 20 gm. Work at this goal for a month. But try to eat more fiber every day. You body will have to adjust to your eating more fiber. You will experience gas as you eat more, but this will go away later.
Your overall goal is to eat at least 25 to 30 grams of fiber. But, the ideal case is to eat 35 – 40 gm. I think you would have to be vegetarian to reach this goal or to eat a lot of bran and other high fiber cereals.
