Megan Rossi Eats 50-60g of Fiber Daily as UK Guideline Stands at 30g

50-60 grams of fiber a day is Megan Rossi’s target, well above the UK’s 30-gram guideline, because she says evidence links higher intake to better mood and gut health.
Fiber feeds gut microbes rather than the body directly, Rossi said, and those microbes produce compounds that support mental health, gut lining strength, appetite regulation and hormone balance.
18 grams of fiber can come at breakfast alone through kefir-soaked overnight oats with seeds, carrot, banana and walnuts; she adds a fruit-and-vegetable smoothie for another 10 grams or more.
Lunch and dinner center on plant diversity—grains, beans, nuts, seeds, vegetables, herbs and spices—with Rossi using bowls and stir-fries to make high-fiber eating manageable.
Fiber-maxxing has gained traction online as awareness grows around blood sugar control, microbiome support and chronic-disease prevention, though experts still advise increasing intake gradually to avoid bloating and abdominal pain.
