it wouldn't do anything. That is insoluble, right? Well, the same thing happens in your GI tract. So both soluble and insoluble fiber are really healthy. They're really good for you, but they have different functions. So if you get a ton of soluble fiber, and you don't have insoluble fiber in there, like boom, things will shoot through.

You'll go, probably go like really constipated and then boom, diarrhea or like pretty new story, right? If you do the opposite and you jack insoluble fiber up way too high, you could just really have like tons of bowel movements. Maybe you're not watery, maybe not. Or you could, again, feel constipated.

So both of these things could be causing either end of that spectrum, depending on where they're at. So when you just have way too much fiber intake, especially in a quick span. So you've just made this change. You went from eating like eight or 10 grams of fiber a day to now eating 35. You're going to just go bam.

That's the majority. I would probably say 90% of the time we've happened to give people more fiber. 10% of the time have been people eating like too much fiber. I would say if you had to pick one error on the side of 40% too much fiber rather than 3% too little.

Like really you want to make sure you're at or above the number, but if you're going crazy and you made all these changes and it's new to you, it's the change that matters, right? So if your GI system's not ready for that, And all of a sudden you're just like, man, I'm eating all these healthy foods and oh my God, my stomach is, I'm just gassy and like all these problems.

Then maybe tone down the broccoli, you know, for a little bit and get some easier to digest forms of fiber for a little bit. Then maybe work your way back up if you need to at all. But yes, most people are not eating enough fiber.
