What Is TikTok’s Fibermaxxing—and How Does It Help Animals?

Fibermaxxing is a new name for wisdom vegans have long known: Fiber-rich food has many health benefits.

Meat, dairy, and eggs do not contain fiber and are cruel to animals. It’s exploitation to force animals to exist to turn their muscles into “food.” It’s wrong to treat living beings as “products” instead of unique individuals. So, not only can being vegan improve human health, but it can also save animals from a life of misery that ends in slaughter.

Going vegan is a great way to fibermaxx! But what’s so important about consuming fiber, anyway?

Why Load Up on Fiber?

• Harvard University researchers found that fiber lowers the risk of breast cancer, according to a 2020 study.
• The American Institute for Cancer Research links high-fiber foods to a lower risk of colorectal cancer.
• Some folks find that fiber helps them maintain a healthy body weight, especially since fiber helps them feel fuller for longer.
• Specialists say that eating enough fiber is good for our gut microbiome.
• Studies show fiber reduces the risk of heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and Alzheimer’s.
• Fiber can help balance blood sugar levels and lower cholesterol.

How Much Fiber Do We Need?

• The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics recommends men have at least 38 grams daily, while women should consume 25 grams of fiber daily.
• Experts say fiber is excellent for overall health, but only 5% of U.S. adults consume enough daily fiber.

How to Fibermaxx:

According to experts, one of the easiest ways to get fiber is to leave the skin on vegan foods. An apple, for example, has over 4 grams of fiber with its skin on, but only 2 grams with no skin. Many foods can—surprisingly— be eaten unpeeled.
