Why YSK: fiber is important for optimal human health. It helps us avoid diabetes, heart disease, colon cancer, obesity, and other diseases. This is particularly important in developed countries such as mine (USA) that are suffering greatly from these diseases.
The recommended daily fiber intake is 25g for women and 38g for men in the USA, and 95% of us don’t meet this amount. This suggests an urgent need for us to increase our daily fiber intake, which can be achieved by swapping out ultra-processed foods and animal foods that are void of fiber with whole plant foods such as fruits, vegetables, legumes, whole grains, nuts, and seeds.
This is purely anecdotal, but I started meal prepping with a pile of mixed vegetables and chicken, and my bowel movements have never been smoother. Like, the difference was legitimately addicting. Haha. An effortless shit everyday is such a massive game changer.
Thing is, I never have better shits than when I eat like absolute crap.
Hotdogs or a fry up, and it just flies out like a greased otter. Draw an ace every time.
When I go on a health kick and eat vegetables, it’s legit like wiping a marker pen.
Ease your way into the healthy diet.
What vegetables?
Literally just mixed peas, carrots and beans from a frozen package haha
I’ll often toss a frozen package in the microwave to go with whatever I’m eating for dinner, then any leftovers go in the fridge to be remicrowaved the next night (they rarely make it more than 2 nights though, otherwise I’d be more careful about over-reheating)
I’ve been working out more (and biking daily) and the post workout shit is always an amazing feeling.
