How much fibre do you get per day?
Fibre is the diet's quiet hero: fullness, a healthy gut, lower cholesterol and diabetes risk. Almost everyone falls short. Let's estimate your grams from daily servings.
≈ 11 g — well under 30 g, 19 g short. A fibre deficit quietly hits digestion, fullness and the heart. Add it gradually (too fast = bloating) with water: whole grains instead of white, legumes a couple of times a week, vegetables at every meal.
Sources: British Nutrition Foundation (30 g/day anchor), WHO (≥25 g). Per-serving fibre is averaged: veg/fruit ≈ 2.5 g, whole grain ≈ 3 g, legumes ≈ 6 g. Increase gradually and drink more water.

How it works
We add up the fibre in your portions — vegetables, fruit, grains and legumes — and compare it with the 30 g daily anchor.
How to read the result
Increase gradually and maintain fluid intake to reduce bloating and discomfort.
