I've been eating 5 bananas daily for years (oral ROA, not plugged).

Humans evolved from frugivores.

It's the same thing as offering a wildebeest to a lion.

No matter how many times you have it, you'll come back for more.

You eat 5 a day forreal? I feel any time of the day I'm down to eat a banana, maybe my preferences are onto something

Yep. But I eat them all at once, in a mashed banana + pea protein dish, with flaxseed, cinnamon, and cacao nibs as topping.

I happen to need a lot of carbs for my training, my total calorie intake is 3300 kcal/day, 60%/25%/15% carbs/fat/protein, which means close to 500g carbs (natural sources only).

I also eat a bunch of other fruits on the other meals of the day.

Total fiber intake averages 100-120g on a regular day.

I consume about the same as you re fiber.

When you realise how much it clears out from your internals, and the profound energy release as a result of no residual waste build-up - you never go back. I firmly believe any sort of waste that doesn't move at healthy speed from the intestines is a big mood, energy and vitality drain that isn't considered. Constipation is horrible and missed as a cause for many issues. Often people are not aware you can have a lot of old waste inside you, but still be passing stool.

Having said that regarding fibre intake, it takes a while to acclimate the digestive system to the volumes in question. I can handle it, no problem. But the average jo? It would nuke their system pretty hard  

Not to mention most people are unprepared for the increase hydration required.

Fully agree haha. That's the catch-22 with fiber. A lot of people avoid it because of how they feel when they eat it, not knowing they should be approaching it as lifting weights at the gym — slowly and steadily increasing the amount until the body handles it well.

Another good point. Although if the new fiber is coming from raw, steamed, or boiled foods that should be less of a problem.

Interesting talk on fiber and hydration. I have this absolute go to chickpea snack recipe where I cook it to almost mush in bone broth and seasonings then crush a little bit and dehydrate. I bring and eat those on the go everywhere but they are very dry by design. Should I bring a wet banana to introduce fluids into myself along with them?

[Lyubov]

I'm dying 

I also feel a little freaky whenever I eat a banana.

Nice snack. I think water would be better than a banana for this purpose. The idea is that fiber with low hydration pulls water from the gut, making stool dried and causing more bloating.

Since you’ve dehydrated the chickpeas, they’ll reabsorb roughly the water you removed. So you can calculate how much you need.

A banana has 90ml of water, and its 3g of fiber will use ~30ml. So you get only 60ml "free" water. It helps, but it would depend on your snack size.

Of course it all depends on your overall hydration during the day. If you're well hydrated you don't need to deliberately drink water at the same time as eating the chickpea snack, I think.

@PsychedelicEagle oh thanks for the clarification. I always bring my water bottle too but since I don’t like to keep my chick’s pea wet outside of the house for convenience I need to dry it.
So you’re saying the water bottle is superior for hydrating than the fluids contained in a big juicy banana?
