Fiber Intake Trends
Despite increased interest in gut health, fiber intake remains below recommended levels for many adults. Recent discussions emphasize fiber’s role in digestive health, metabolic regulation, and satiety rather than weight loss alone. However, fiber conversations can become overly technical or prescriptive, creating barriers rather than support. Fitness professionals can encourage awareness of fiber-rich foods and dietary variety without prescribing targets, reinforcing fiber as part of balanced eating patterns that support overall health and training consistency
