fiber question

borac

Can you have too much fiber ? i'm confused with the part where i log my food entries.. and it tells me that i'm -11 gm of fiber meaning- over the " recomended #" ..
can you gain weight from too much fiber ? I trained myself to get the most fiber i can find in everything and now i'm seeing this -11.. or - whatever on fiber..
please explain

thanks

the problem is people dont get enough fiber- you can change the settings on your food log to get the recomended fiber which is 25 grams per day- but if your just starting to increase your fiber do it slowly.i think thats the one things i go over and dont feel bad about well that and my water.

You'll know if you're eating too much fiber. :sick: If you have painful gas or loose stools all the time. Otherwise, you're fine. Fiber has no calories.
