Fibremaxxing: Is Fibre the New Protein?

Share your thoughts The internet's newest nutrition craze is backing the one nutrient almost all of us are short of — but the fibre soda isn't the answer. Your dal is. Last year it was proteinmaxxing. This year it's fibremaxxing — chia in everything, beans at breakfast, even fibre soda. Ashok and Meera explain why the internet has, for once, backed the right horse: most of us already eat enough protein but get only about half the fibre we need. What fibre actually does (feeding the gut bacteria that feed you), why 'nature's Ozempic' is overstated, where fibremaxxing goes wrong, and the everyday kitchen foods — dal, chana, guava, whole grains — that close the gap without a single gummy.
