What is the recommended daily fiber intake for men?

• A. 38 g/day.
• B. 14 g per 1,000 kcal.
• C. 25 g/day.
• D. 60 g/day.

Answer: (A)

Fiber is a key nutrient for digestive health, heart health, and blood sugar control. For adult men, guidelines set a daily target of about 38 grams of dietary fiber. This fixed goal helps ensure you get enough fiber regardless of your total calories. While some approaches express fiber as a ratio per 1,000 calories, that method can vary with how much you eat and may fall short of the standard daily target for many people. The 25 grams figure is more commonly associated with women or generalized lower targets, and 60 grams is above typical recommendations. So, 38 grams per day is the best fit for men. To reach this, include a variety of high-fiber foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, beans, and nuts.
