why is it so hard to find food to eat that is high in fiber? im not on a diet or anything i am just trying to get the normal amount but everything just doesnt really have itwhat are anons favorite fiberous foods? i like picrel but i cant just buy them every other day
>>22040908for cheep fiber you can rely on apples/pears, bran cereal, cabbage.raspberries as a special treat on the weekend
>>22040908I figure good whole wheat bread isn't too hard to find
>>22040908Just shovel down psyllium.
>>22040927it takes like shit
>>22040908Just add a handful of green leaves to a normal dish each day. Perfect shits achieved.
Fiber is bad.
>>22040933that doesn't work for me at all. I need like 100 grams per day, although I have recreationally ravaged my colon
>>22040908>why is it so hard to find food to eat that is high in fiber?when?https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/nutrition-and-healthy-eating/in-depth/high-fiber-foods/art-20050948
>>22040933>unable to digest cell walls>perfect poopspick one.and if you pick wrong you're gonna shit chunks of leaves.
Get konjac powderPut konjac powder in foodWA LA
lentil soup/w vegetables>take dry lentils>boil with some meat/bones with a pinch of soda (softens lentils)>throw in whatever vegetables you like>boil like 15 minutes more>blend>drinkwala
>>22040908oats are simply magical for my shits make them with milk and add whatever you feel like that day, nuts, fruit, seeds, honeyfor actual greens I do spinach smoothies
>>22041040yah the beans/peas/lentil type things seem to have more fiber than anythin else
>>22040908Pear,Pineapple,Apple,Sweet potato,Cabbage,Cornmeal/flour.Psyllium husk is a gel that can form lump if insufficient water, and can contain arsenic, which our 3rd world supplier don't care.
dried coconut
>>22041025That’s the point. You want some neutral roughage to move things along.
>>22040927>just eat leadNah
>>22040908>You need 24 grams of fiber a day>Most foods have 1g of fiber per 100gWhat is this shit.,,
>>22040908
>>22040933most greens don't have much if any fiber.
>>22040908Metamucil is kingchia seeds and flax meal, I just put it in my overnight oats, but you can just put both in yogurt or oatmealBeanswhole wheat breadfruit and veg
>>22041788metamucil is literally just psyllium and if your buying the pills your getting ripped the fuck off compared to just buying a big bag of psyllium husk powder. but like others have said that shit is contaminated and big surprise its primarily cultivated in India.I would also suggest trying different sources of fiber to see if one is more effective for you. I can eat beans and brown rice and still have a fairly soft poo that requires multiple wipes but if I eat some quinoa instead I get a single foot long firm piece that doesnt even need a single wipe. For soluble fiber it might have to do with your particular gut microbiome so not all fiber sources are treated equally between people.
Every single day I eat:- 1/4 cup steel cut oats- 1/4 cup oat bran- 1/2 cup blueberries- 1 tbsp chia seeds- 1 tbsp flax seeds- 1 tbsp pumpkin seeds- 2 tsp benefiber- 1 pack of nattoComes out to 28g fiber.
>>22041770This crap is almost entirely just food refuse. Man.
>>22041879>metamucil is literally just psylliumLearn what the word literally means. Metamucil is literally higher in sugar than in actual psyllium.
>>22041918I like you
>>22041918I bet your poops don't even smell. I bet even if you put it in a ziploc bag and mailed it to me it wouldn't even smell if I opened it in my kitchen haha. I guess we'll never find out though ahah
>>22041918Ohh cool you've replied to me before.
>>22040927you can mix like 50g of psyllium into 600g of cold water then its convenient to scoop out a bit for milkshakes or something and eaten daily it helps your overall health
>>22040908Costco protein bars have 8 grams of fiber. You should mostly eat unprocessed Foods but 1 a day is fine
Fiber causes inflammation, constipation and hemorrhoids. It is unnecessary and dangerous.
>>22040908>everything just doesnt really have it Stop eating burgers every day it's not hard
>>22041036>WA LAIts 'voila' you absolute faggot. You're not supposed to spell words phonetically, the entire reason that English has traps like this is to point out for the upper classes who's a native speaker and who's a filthy transplant. Don't be brown.
>>22042285oh anon your knew here
>>22040908celery
>>22042194sorghum.....
>>22042285Nice job outing yourself as the transplant.
>>22042285welcome!
>>22040908Black-eyed peasOatmeal/museliCabbage
>>22040908Avocados have 10ish grams of fiber each. ezpz
>>22042285Welcome to 4chan, Anon! Did you just turn 18? What made you decide to start browsing thia site?
>>22040933>>22041773You'd have to eat FIVE 15oz cans of spinach a day to get enough fiber. Greens are a terrible source of fiber.
>>22042782>spinach is the only green>if you eat greens you can only eat greensMake your strawmen less obvious next time
>>22042782Yeah bro two cups of kale (a salad) for nearly a third of your days fiber is "a terrible source"
>>22042585you're not supposed to eat the pit
>>22042806How in the world does kale have that much fat and protein?
>>22042813>steamed
>>22042818That doesn't really answer anything.
>>22042195>higher in sugarMetamucil has one with artificial sweeteners and another without sweeteners of any kind
>>22042282>t.ass cancer cell
>>22040908Just eat more fruits and veggies, particularly veggies
>>22040908>so hard to find food to eat that is high in fiber?you can literally eat wood pulp and grass, anon.most fruit and granola bars are full of wood.
>>22040933Fiber noob detected
>>22040927I tried 100 ways to shove it down my throat. I ended up with crackers as the best way.Soak oatmeal for a night, add a bunch of psyllium and some spices, bake crispy in the oven.
>>22041024I know about something delicious with a surprising high amount of fibre. Cocoa, it’s 30% to 37% fibre.>Cocoa powder is very high in dietary fiber, containing approximately 30 to 37 grams of fiber per 100 grams, making it a great source for digestive health.
>>22042949Cocoa is great, but you need to be careful of a few things:>Added sugar>Heavy metal content (basically a gamble, fancier brands aren't better)>Polyphenol countIf you can, it's best to find cocoa powder that hasn't been "dutched" (treated with an alkalizing agent), because it drastically reduces the polyphenol count. Something that has only been very lightly roasted will also increase its polyphenol count, usually marketed as "cacao powder".My whole family has 1tbsp of cacao powder each day in our breakfast, which is more than you might think.Anyway the trick with fiber is to get lots of different kinds. And by that I mean fiber that feeds bacteria in different parts of your gut. I usually target about 45g per day, but you shouldn't try to get all of that in a single meal. For most people, just remind yourself that good food doesn't "have" ingredients, it "is" ingredients. Once you have the big parts under control, you can start thinking about the small details.
I have the same problem. I'm aiming for 30-35g/day (not just for poops also genetic cholesterol) but it's already a challenge staying over 25. I focus on whole wheat grains (bread, pasta, rice) but the downside (especially rice) is that they can contain arsenic so I always soak them a day beforehand.Force some psyllium down my throat occasionally as well.For fruits/veggies; I especially love green peas, green beans, apple sauce, broccoli, kale, brussel sprouts, belgian endive, ... . I avoid beans mostly, they have good fiber but I cant handle them well. The biggest issue is that we cultivated our food to be easier to chew and be more sweet so we ended up with sacks of sugar with low fibre content.A grape used to be skin and seeds with a little bit of moist, now its just sugar water with a little bit of skin and seed.I grow some berry bushes in my yard that aren't "economically interesting" resulting in them still being more related to prehistoric fruits than our common fruits. They're bitter, sour, chewy... just like they should be. But you just have to shove it down.Post-ww2 humanity is the only time in history that we eat to enjoy instead of to survive, it's a disastrous mindset for our health
>>22042949>>22042975Don't forget oxalates.Kidney stones will get ya
>>22042578Black-eyed peas?
Pulses (lentils, beans)Chia seedsPsylium huskCruciferous vegetablesOats/Oat brancocoa husk fiber is 70% fiber in the dry masscocoa powder is also good
>>22042804>spinach is the only greenName a green with substantially more.>if you eat greens you can only eat greensNever said that. But it's true the amount of fiber you get from eating the amount of greens a normal person eats in a day is probably very small.>>22042806The kale in my refrigerator says you'd have to eat two entire pounds of it to get 100% of your daily fiber. That's an enormous amount. Each bag is the size of a couch pillow, and that's only one pound.
>>22040914>raspberries as a special treat on the weekend
just eats lots of blueberries and potatoes with the skin on
I feel like no matter how much fiber I eat my digestive system never moves as quickly as I'd like it to, which just concerns me.
>>22043023they cost too much dollars so it's only to be enjoyed as a special treat
Three tablespoons of chia seeds in a small mason jar overnight with a milk of your choosing. Easy daily fiber intake.
>>22043177does this work with yaeiourt instead of milk?
>>22043196No of course not nothing works with yaeiourt
>>22043102Are you keeping up your liquid intake amigo? That's the kicker with a high fiber intake is you need a bunch more water to help move it through your colon. Due to the way it behaves, it sucks up all the moisture in there, particularly stuff like Psyllium and if you don't have extra liquid running through you, it'll stick in there for a while and slow down digestion. It will make you feel more full at least, but yeah, without extra water, its' not going to speed up your poops. >>22040908OP if you're having trouble getting enough fiber and Psyllium isn't working for you, try checking corn husk fiber supplements like the one from Just Better. It's a super fine powder that's 5grams of fiber per tablespoon and you can easily add it to your coffee or smoothies for extra fiber in your system.
>>22043293>fiber up/slim downdishonest marketing.
>>22042833It does. When you heat something up, it reduces the volume, concentrating the macronutrients. When you cook chicken breast, the protein concentration increases because the water evaporates.
>>22042865You're right. Diet Coke and Coke are exactly the same thing, And when somebody orders "Coke" at a restaurant, they should expect and be satisfied when they receive Diet Coke.
>>22042980Oxalates have never been a problem ever. Stop living your life by memes and following grifters.
>>22043008>Name a green with substantially more.Kale>Never said that.You implied that.>But it's true the amount of fiber you get from eating the amount of greens a normal person eats in a day is probably very small.Nobody is talking about the amount of greens a normal person eats. The discussion is about the objective macronutrient proportion in foods.>The kale in my refrigerator saysThe advertisement for pop tarts to say that they're part of a balanced breakfast. I don't really care what your bag says, And nobody mentioned getting 100% of your daily fiber from greens, much less a single green. That's again a straw man that you tried to use before and then defended in the previous post. At least give it a rest before you try and use the same exact fallacious argument again because you have literally no point.
I use the bathroom once a day and also I feel great all the time
>>22041036I'd rather get cognac droplets haha
>>22043515Moving the goalposts there a bit, mate.
>>22043658When trying to win annonymous internet arguments is the high point of your life you do what you gotta do.
>>22040908>>22040914buy frozen imperfects, they're way cheaper and taste the same
>>22043667frozen fruit is only good for smüthies, otherwise it's all musch when it thaws and not enjoyable as a snack
>>22043672they're quite good in cereal and oats
>>22043674that's fair I guess
>>22043658Please show me where I moved them.
Replying to yourself is not a good look
>>22043653HA! h
