If you're not pooping as much (or as easily) as you'd like, you probably need more fiber.
Most people should aim for 25–35 grams of fiber a day. But you're probably not even coming close to that.
Basically, most of your daily fiber should come from things without a nutrition label. SO we rounded up lots of fiber-rich foods you can easily work into your usual meals.
