Ready to level‑up your fiber game? In this episode of the Nutrition Awareness Podcast, registered dietitians Megan Ware, RDN LD & Kait Richardson swap science‑backed strategies for “fiber‑maxxing."

Fiber-maxxing is intentionally boosting daily fiber to support gut health, steady energy, and long‑term disease prevention.

What we cover (at a glance):

- The simple math behind how much fiber you really need per day

- Soluble vs. insoluble: why you need both and easy ways to get them

- Fiber‑maxxing myths (no, you don’t have to live on salads)

- High‑fiber meal hacks for busy people (including breakfast on the go)

- How fiber supports weight management, blood sugar, and cholesterol

- When to supplement and how to avoid the common “too much, too fast” mistake

Regarding TCM & Endometrosis:

"Endometriosis is definitely considered an Excess pattern in Traditional Chinese Medicine, particularly due to Blood Stasis, which creates fixed, often severe pain and obstructs healthy flow. But it can also be complicated by Dampness, Phlegm, or Cold depending on the patient. Some people develop cysts or masses—that’s where we might see more Phlegm-Damp accumulation layered on top of the stagnation. So it’s often a combination, but the root is typically an excess condition, especially early on." -Dr. Kristen Hill
