In this episode, we're slowing down the “fibermaxxing” conversation and coming at it through the lens of science, context, and a compassionate relationship with food.</p><p>In this episode, we discuss:</p><p>* What the fibermaxxing trend is, what the research actually says about fiber’s benefits, and where those benefits level off</p><p>* How diet culture turns neutral nutrition advice (remember protein?) into extremes and appetite-control strategies</p><p>* The difference between supporting fullness and suppressing hunger — especially in today’s GLP-1 and “nature’s Ozempic” era</p><p>* Why this messaging can be particularly tricky for those healing from disordered eating or volume-eating patterns</p><p>* How to approach fiber in a way that supports health without sacrificing nourishment, satisfaction, or trust in your body</p><p>Support the show: Enjoying this podcast?
