The fiber number most people miss

CO
@Community Mod MOD ·
Most adults get about half the fiber they need. Aim for 25, 30g a day from fruit, veg, oats, beans, and psyllium. Ramp up slowly over a week and drink more water as you go, softer stool means far less straining, which is the #1 thing that makes hemorrhoids worse.

Prunes or kiwi in the morning kept me regular, and that is when the flares got less frequent.
