Episode 35: Fiber Is Not Your Friend
Mar 17, 2025Welcome to Episode 35 of The Road to Carnivore Podcast!
Everywhere around us we constantly hear about how great fiber is. How fiber is our friend. How it's essential for us to poop. How it helps us lose weigh. How it lowers risk of colon cancer. Yada yada yada.
These are all quite unfounded claims, with plenty of evidence to counter them.
In this 14-minute episode you will learn why I do not recommend seeking out fiber in your diet, and how eliminating fiber actually eliminates gut issues and constipation.
