Summary
While fiber is crucial for gut health, the new “fibermaxxing” trend is leading some people to overdo it. Eating too much fiber — especially without enough water — can lead to bloating, gas, constipation or diarrhea, and general digestive discomfort. Excessive intake (e.g., over 70 g/day) may also impair the absorption of essential minerals, such as iron and calcium, causing fatigue, brittle nails, or pale skin. Overfilling the stomach with fiber can make it hard to finish meals, so that you might miss out on calories or other nutrients. Experts recommend limiting fiber intake to about 25–30 g per day and increasing it gradually, along with adequate hydration.
