Aim for at least 40 grams of fiber each day. Choose beans,
vegetables, fruits, and whole grains (e.g., whole wheat pasta, barley,
oats, quinoa). Aim for at least 3 grams of fiber per serving on
labels and 10 to 15 grams per meal. Start slowly. Expect a change
in bowel habits (usually for the better). Gassiness from beans can
be minimized with small servings and thorough cooking and, if a
problem, will get better over time!
