Fiber / Fibre at Menopause: Why and How much is enough?

Fiber supports almost every system of the human body and is even more important at menopause. Why? Because it can also help in regulating our hormones 

and may even reduce some of the symptoms of menopause. PMID: 35983178

In general, 14 gm of fibre for every 1000 calories consumed per day is recommended. PMID: 35807822

So, if you consume 2000 calories, you need around 28 gm in the day.

Homework for you - Head on to google or any online calculator and look for the fiber content in 

• one cup of cut lettuce

• one cup of boiled beans or rajma and 

• one chicken breast
