Are you getting enough fibre or to much fibre ?. It is now estimated that many diets now all over the world because of white rice white sugar white bread, refined flour processed food, people do not get enough fibre. and on the flip side because of many people uninformed they get to much fibre. foods with fibre removed are digested more quickly in the body, leaving you to get more hungry quickly.
Dietary fiber has a wide range of health benefits.
Fiber can slow the absorption of carbohydrates and help people feel more satisfied with fewer calories. It also acts as a prebiotic, feeding the friendly bacteria in the gut, and can help boost heart health.
Most ultra-processed foods are very low in fiber, as natural fiber is lost during processing.
The Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2015–2020suggests that for every 1,800 calories, 25.2 grams (g) should come from fiber. Fibre is naturally found in plant foods, such as fruit and berries, vegetables, grains (rice, wheat, oat etc.) and nuts. A diet high in fibre helps improve the digestion of other nutrients (carbohydrates, proteins and fat). but a diet to high in fibre can cause bloating runny poo an high gas.
People are being killed slowly and suffering ill health all over the world because of the foods they eat from trusted food chains and suppliers.
Hi im calling all brothers and sisters to raise awareness to a verry serious matter.
Un-beknown to many people when they go to the food store they prefer or like, to pick up there food, most people think well if the food i buy is allowed to be sold to the public it must not be to bad. (How wrong they are).
For many people who suffer there food passing through them to quicky not collecting the nutrients they need, or another way to explain this is for many people who have runny poo first thing of a morning, A doctor may prescribe fibre gel to swallow.
You have to ask yourself why am i being giving fibre, when to much fibre can make my poo runny
Why Is Fiber Important for Your Digestive Health?
We hear a lot about the health benefits of protein — but all too often, the pros of eating fiber go overlooked. Everyday Health reached out to 10 digestive health experts and asked them exactly how fiber boosts your digestive health (and whether it’s possible to eat too much).

Dietary fiber, found particularly in vegetables, fruits, beans, and whole grains, helps to keep bowel movements regular. Individuals who consume high-fiber diets have much lower rates of constipation than individuals that eat a low-fiber diet, plus they have fewer hemorrhoids and diverticula (outpouchings) in the colon. Too much fiber may result in loose stools, bloating, or even diarrhea. however taking fibre with less water can harden the stools to

Dietary fiber is the term used to describe the combination of both insoluble and soluble fibers. Soluble fiber is the form of fiber that dissolves in water. Examples of foods that contain soluble fiber include fruits, oats, legumes and barley. Insoluble fiber comes from plant cell walls and does not dissolve in water. Examples of foods that contain insoluble fiber include wheat, vegetables, and seeds. Fiber works by both bulking up the stool and retaining water.
In addition, bacteria help digest the fiber which produces healthy ingredients for the colon such as short chain fatty acids. Fiber can be beneficial for both diarrhea and constipation depending how much fluid is also taken in with the fiber. Fiber can actually become a constipating agent if the amount of fluid taken in is too low.

Fiber plays a major role in digestive health. Fiber is the fuel the colon cells use to keep them healthy. Fiber also helps to keep the digestive tract flowing, by keeping your bowel movements soft and regular.
It is possible to get too much fiber, and your body will know it. You may experience bloating and many more bowel movements than you are normally are used to.

Fibers are primarily non-digestible carbohydrates. Fibers are components of plant foods, fruits, vegetables, dried beans and peas, lentils, nuts, and seeds — any food that is classified as a plant. The fiber provides structure. Think of the celery stalk and the obvious vertical fiber strings that one often gets caught in their teeth. In addition, because fibers are non-digestible, they contribute to stool bulk and add form to the stool. People with irregularity are often advised to increase their fiber and fluid intake.
But can you get too much? Well yes, you can get too much of anything. But you will know when you do. When you eat too much fiber, your digestive system may be overwhelmed and you will suffer from abdominal bloating and pass excessive gas. You don’t want that, so keep an open mind and just eat as much fiber as you personally need to keep regular and enjoy a flat abdomen.
Another really important role of fiber is that some fibers are prebiotics — meaning they are fermented in the colon by the healthful beneficial bacteria. The products of this fermentation, which include short chained fatty acids, are thought to be healthful to the lining of the colon. In addition the acidic milieu that results from the fermentation is unfriendly to the survival of the pathogenic (harmful) bacteria which cause illness and may contribute to an unhealthy colonic environment. Expect more research findings on this subject.
