Casey Means on Fiber (50g/Day Goal): recommends

Dr. Casey Means recommends a daily fiber goal of roughly 50 grams, with fiber added to every meal. Means has described eating fiber as “telling your microbiome I love you” — a framing from her Good Energy dietary framework that positions fiber as a core act of care for the gut ecosystem.

Means’s stated reasoning is that fiber feeds the microbiome, which she treats as foundational to metabolic health and energy production. Higher fiber intake, in her account, supports the gut environment that in turn supports cellular function — part of why fiber is one of the central pillars of her “Good Energy eating” framework rather than an afterthought.
