You have to feed the gut! Fiber is food for the bacteria in your intestine
A short segment of a YouTube video by Dr. Ron Najafi explaining that dietary fiber feeds gut bacteria and that two types of fiber—soluble (e.g., pectin, inulin) and insoluble (e.g., cellulose, chitin)—are both important. The speaker notes that fruit contains both fiber types and gives concrete examples (stringy celery, shellfish shells, grasshoppers) to illustrate insoluble fiber sources.
