Fiber Macro Cheat Sheets
Constantly feel like you’re at war with your digestion? Do you regularly battle with constipation, bloating, irregular bowel movements, or difficulty using the bathroom?
These may all be signs that you’re not getting enough fiber!
The hard part about fiber is that if you’re not tracking and monitoring it, it can be kinda like protein where it’s easy to fall short. Especially if you’re not someone who regularly eats tons of fruits, veggies, beans, lentils, etc.
Thankfully we’re here for the rescue with these fiber macro cheat sheets.
Pick a few bullet points and ride the laziness train into the sunset:
- 3 items = ~15g fiber
- 4 items = ~20g fiber
- 5 items = ~25g fiber
- 6 items = ~30g fiber
- 7 items = ~35g fiber
- and so on.
Each bullet is about ~5g of fiber, but as always, check your nutrition labels when shopping as not all foods (oatmeal, bread, etc) will be created equal and may vary greatly brand-to-brand.
Keep in mind that there can be “too much of a good thing” and there’s a bell curve where if you’re averaging ~40-60 grams of fiber daily, you may experience GI distress, bloating, tummy distention, etc.
You’ve been warned – so play around and see where you feel your best. Use these macro cheat sheets to quickly and easily find food with at least 5g of fiber each!
