How much fiber one is too much?
I find myself eating a good 3+ servings of fiber one on a daily basis. Is this too much? I get a lot of fiber from other places as well.
We're talking 14 grams a fiber per serving here. It's my understanding that too much fiber can be detrimental to nutrient absorption. How much is too much?

The American Dietetic Association advises that intakes greater than 50-60 grams a day can block the absorption of some nutrients. Generally the recommended amount is 20-35 grams. Make sure you drink plenty of water and get a mix of soluble and insoluble fiber.

I am sure that the American.. made this for the regular person.
That is why I always increase the RDA on everything.

Not a bad strategy, as long as you don't mega dose fat-soluble vitamins and minerals.That is why I always increase the RDA on everything.

Yeah, this is true for most nutrients. The increase should almost be linear with the increase in caloric intake for the most part. Originally Posted by Vieope
