The average American gets only about 10 to 15 grams of fiber a day, which is less than half the recommended 25 grams for women and 38 grams for men.

Most of us don’t realize we’re falling short until digestion starts to feel off: bloating, constipation, sluggishness, and that uncomfortable “never quite right” feeling. If you’re on a GLP-1 medication, low fiber intake can matter even more, since constipation is one of the most common and frustrating side effects.

So how do we close the gap without overhauling everything we eat?

In this episode, I walk you through simple, realistic ways to build more fiber into your day. I’m sharing the foods and products I personally rely on, what to know about magnesium and probiotics, and how to spot supplements that may be helping your digestion or working against it.
