How much fiber for weight loss?

Question

I'm planning my diet to shed some kilos, and I know fiber is important. What's the recommended amount of fiber for effective weight loss?

Arjun Sharma · Accepted Answer

Don't get caught up in all the internet fads about specific nutrients for weight loss. While fiber is important, it's about your overall diet and lifestyle. Get proper advice from a qualified doctor or dietitian, not just some random forum post. Your health is not a game.

Oh, weight loss! That's a journey I've been on since my 30s. Fiber does help, makes you feel full, right? I try to add more carrots and cucumber to my meals. If only I could stick to it every day, haan. Sab mushkil hai.

I've been there! For weight loss, I found aiming for 30g of fiber was a good target. Don't go for supplements unless recommended. Just add a lot of whole fruits, salads, sprouts, and multi-grain rotis. It's sustainable and keeps you full, trust me.

Generally, for adults, the recommendation is around 25-35 grams of fiber per day. It aids in satiety and digestion, which indirectly helps with weight management. However, for a tailored weight loss plan, consulting a registered dietitian is always the most effective approach.

Hey! Don't stress too much about exact numbers. Just try to eat more sabzi, dal, and fruits throughout the day. Like, add a small salad with lunch and dinner, snack on an apple. Small changes add up! You got this!
