How Fiber Recommendations Work

The Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend 14 grams of fiber for every 1,000 calories consumed.

Formula

Fiber (g) = (Daily Calories / 1000) x 14

About 25% should come from soluble fiber and 75% from insoluble fiber.

Exemple Résolu

A person consuming 2,000 calories per day.

  1. Fiber = (2000 / 1000) x 14 = 28 g
  2. Soluble fiber = 28 x 0.25 = 7 g
  3. Insoluble fiber = 28 x 0.75 = 21 g
