A member asked:
How much fibre should an adult male consume daily? what specific fruit and vegetables contain the most fibre?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Fruit,veggies,grains: If your goal is "high fiber" try for 25 grams or more a day (our ancestor cavemen probably consumed ; tolerated twice that). Water soluble fiber supplements minimize gassiness ; bloating that some experience w/ insoluble fibers. High fiber foods include uncooked vegetables, unpeeled fruits, ; whole grains (oatmeal, bran, etc.). Advantages include: cholesterol drop, an assist to weight loss, more.
