[QUOTE="DeWoken, post: 1566072, member: 18948"] I guess I'm repeating earlier posts in the thread but I think that the excess fiber will eventually catch up with you (although, yes, everyone is slightly different). Some say that hunger can be a sign that your body isn't getting the nutrients it needs and isn't just a caloric thing (modern soil is deficient, farming practices are "industrial"). Shoving fiber and fluids down will somewhat dampen this hunger. I guess many other factors play into our appetite (exercise, stress, alcohol, habit, etc). That said, the diet guy I follow says that after studying many indigenous diets he has come to the conclusion that an ideal diet consists of some raw, cooked, and fermented foods. He says that some fiber is helpful for gut bacteria and to help with gut motility, but the amount of fiber recommended by many is way too high. There are anti-nutrients in many vegetables, so that "feeling of fullness" isn't necessarily doing people any good. [/QUOTE]
