Dietary fiber from whole foods may outperform supplements for weight loss
While social media trends like ‘fibermaxxing’ promote expensive supplements such as psyllium husk and konjac powder for weight loss, research suggests that whole foods may be more effective.
A study involving 240 adults found that consuming at least 30 grams of fiber daily, combined with regular nutritional counseling, resulted in an average weight loss of 2.1 kilograms over one year. The research highlights a distinction between fiber obtained from natural sources like oats, lentils, and beans versus isolated fiber additives.
