Protein was the big topic of nutritional conversation for years - how women need more of it, especially when exercising regularly, especially in menopause. Fibre is the next dietary essential to come under the spotlight.
Dr Amy Shah is a leading expert in the role that nutrition plays in health, longevity, and hormone regulation, and is a double board-certified doctor. Speaking to Mel Robbins on her podcast, Dr Shah revealed that the average American only gets about 10g out of her recommended 30g per day. Only 5% of people in the United States eat enough fibre every day. According to Guts UK, those of us in the UK only reach about 16g per day. It's a problem.
