Mehmet Oz on 30 grams of fiber a day: recommends

Dr. Mehmet Oz recommends roughly 30 grams of fiber per day, front-loaded at breakfast. In an excerpt from his book YOU: On a Diet, Oz wrote that fiber “slows everything way down” in the gut and that morning fiber — oatmeal, whole grains, fruit — reduces late-afternoon hunger.

Oz’s stated reasoning is that a high-fiber breakfast creates lasting satiety through the day, preventing the afternoon hunger crash that leads to sugar binges. (This is Oz’s stated position from his own writing, not medical advice.)
