I read somewhere that there are actually two types of fiber, and they have different effects, but most food is only ever labelled "fiber" so idk.

[-] angband@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

Soluble vs. insoluble. But also fermenting vs. non-fermenting for both types. Psyllium husk powder is non-fermenting soluble fiber. Not drinking enough water with soluble fiber gives hard stools. But soluble fiber is "the good kind". That super popular doctor recommended fiber-by-the-spoon is psyllium powder, all dressed up.

Whole psyllium husks are fun.

I swear last time I put a bunch in my shaker I shit things I never ate.

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
