Adding Fiber to Your Routine? Prime Your Gut for Success

You’re doing right by your body and trying to intake more fiber. Unfortunately too much fiber too soon—or in a microbiome that isn’t ready for it—can lead to digestive discomfort. We want to set you up for success, so here are some tips for adding fiber and sticking with it.

Add fermented foods (think yogurt, sauerkraut or kimchi) to the menu for a couple of weeks. This essentially primes your gut with more abundance and variety of good bacteria species that can then help you break down additional fiber.¹

Start with a smaller dose and work your way up. For example, if a serving is two gummies, start with just one; if it’s one capsule three times a day, start with one capsule once a day. Gradually increase until you’re at the full recommended serving.

As always, drink plenty of water throughout the day to support hydration and gut motility.
