Eating a high fibre diet is basically playing your physical health on easy mode. Can't wait to see the rest of this series!

Humans were not designed for a high fibre diet. Most will have better digestion at a low to low-moderate fibre intake.

​@@JMOlsen_ I'm not sure what your definition of "high" is, or what perspective you're coming from, but my family doctor has told us to double our fibre intake. She says fibre is like a "super group" for your body, it's the best thing you can do for yourself. Especially if you're prone to diabetes. Of course i speak for my family but to my understanding, the higher the fibre you can get, the better. Correct me if I'm wrong. I don't see what could go wrong if you consume more fibre, i think most people are not consuming enough anyway.

​@@JMOlsen_ the reasonbis that they don't drink enough. For all this fibre to work it's magic you have to drink a lot. I'm one of these people who don't drink enough normally but eat a high fibre diet. When I remember to drink my digestion is fine.

@@iain.sm.c No. Most people are healthier if they don't overdo fibre intake. Humans don't have the right digestive system to ferment plants. We are not ruminants or hind gut fermentors who can derive actual nutrients from fibre. The fibre myth is one of those dietary errors propagated by big Agra and big pharma. Recommending a high fibre , low fat, low protein and high carb diet is great for big pharma and big agra profit. But extremely bad for human health. A natural human diet, not trying to consume surplus fibre, will provide the modest amount actually beneficial. The one thing that is correct here, is that dietary variety drives a better and more diverse gut bacteria in humans. So a valid argument for plant variety, but not for large quantities of them.

It's easier than people think to achieve this too! Spices, nuts and seeds count towards your 30 plants. So something like sprinkling a seed mix on a salad or snacking on mixed nuts is great to help boost your intake.

Agreed, soup makes it easier to consume a variety of nutrition. I have a hand blender specifically for soups and smoothies. Very fun to use!

After seeing this study from ZOE, I tracked my food meticulously for a couple of months. Between veggies, beans, and grains in meals, fruits and nuts for snacking, and a vast array of spices when cooking, I counted 40-60 different plants per week. 30 plants per week is definitely an achievable goal and budget friendly if you include spices and canned or dry goods like beans, veggies, and fruit.

The actual study is the American Gut Project. You can find the abstract and summary of major figures on the ASM Journal website if you google American Gut Project. Pubmed also has a study using some of the data. But I couldn’t find the entire study with questionnaires and everything. The summary on ASM Journal distinguishes between people eating >30 plants per week and

The best tip I’ve read to help reach the 30 plant quota is really going to town on herbs and spices! Even dried herbs count towards your 30 plants, so if you get a few different seasoning blends (ideally organic and relatively fresh), you’re golden!

I try to eat a primarily plant based diet too but had to start eating small amounts of grass fed beef amd natiral chicken due to anemia so love this idea of plant points to increase plants in diet especially for my husband. I started putting fresh kale in the freezer after washing it. It is so easy when frozen to just crush it into kale flakes and it to lots of cooked recipes like pasta sauces, taco tilling, soup etc.

It’s very easy to do since veggies, fruits, legumes, nuts, grains and herbs all count. A couple soups, salads and smoothies - you’re there 👌🏼

Your dress is gorgeous! I can't wait to see these recipes!

High fiber is good for some gut issues but not all! I have gastroparesis and high fiber foods actually make my flares and pain much worse. Wish I could eat more plants, but I have to stick with what works.

I heard this a few weeks ago and have been really trying to be mindful of what I cook and eat. Each week I've been counting each plant and only get to the early twenties, so I'm excited for this series!

This looks ridiculously easy & I never would have thought of it. Thank you!

Came for the recipe was delighted by hearing ‘to boot’, it needs a comeback!

This is great! I feel like I get in a rut of just chicken, broccoli, and rice over and over again. This will really switch things up!

This sounds great, even with people saying fresh and dried herbs count. But what I’m worried about is the cost - it seems like it’s not a great time to start buying things you might not be able to afford in this current climate

Buying canned or frozen is a great way to get in your fruits and veg during their off-seasons for cheap! They are still very nutritious, especially because they can be packaged while the produce is still fresh and has more nutrients.

There is potential for it to work if you have a moderate income or some time and a freezer. With min income it won't work but you can buy herbs in a pot or seeds for them and they will hold for months. Or dried herbs. Beans and other can stuff is the same price all year round. You can freeze meals or vegetables when you have a lot ingredients and it's in season. I don't know about 30 different plants but I do manage 20. i think I would need to buy more diverse and I honestly don't want to. I don't like everything. 😂
