Episode 18: Is Fibermaxxing Worth It?
In this episode, we dive into why fiber is having a viral moment on social media and what can get lost when “maxing” any nutrient becomes the goal. Using real patient stories, we review the potential downsides of going from low to high fiber too fast, the confusion created by trendy products and marketing, and why “more” isn’t always better. We also preview how we think about fiber in real life—food-first, context-aware, and focused on what’s actually practical.
