In society obsessed over protein (which is nearly impossible not to get enough of) we take for granted the fiber our bodies are often desperately deficient in.

97% of Americans Don’t Get Enough Fiber:

I just learned about a short chained fatty acid called ‘Propionate’. Which works (quite literally) as an appetite switch, turning off that cravings for more food. Propionate is created as a result of your gut bacteria breaking down ingested fiber.

In summation step up your fiber intake (from whole plants). You can do this by upping the amount of whole plants you already eat, plus slowly incorporating more fiber from different plants (variety is king). Eat enough fiber in a 24 period and you won’t be having those cravings for nasty high energy food (junky fatty foods) that your body doesn’t need.

Found a pretty decent list of high fiber whole plant food here - High Fiber Fruits And Vegetables List

Anyways, just wanted to get that little bit of info out there for ya eyeballs!

Thanks for stopping by!

It’s cool, I love a good joke. LoL

All kidding aside, we rock different sides of dietary spectrum and that’s fine with me.

I totally agree! This has been on my mind lots over the holidays. My diet is deficient 8s diverse quality fiber. Lots of remedies for that though. And, change is a finicky thing! It's all about that bacteria though hey?! Need much more of the good stuff and it needs fiber. Great piece. Nice to see ya on the block @venomnymous 😉🎶🌻

Thanks, I think we could do for a variety of fiber in our diets. Get that bacteria going! lol
