I mi piace fare questi video pratici di tipo decisionale quotidiano. Se vai al supermercato e trovi prodotti che soddisfano la regola del rapporto 5 a 1, condividili in un commento qui sotto. Non sono facili da trovare!

Mangiare cibi ricchi di fibre è più che evitare la stitichezza. Ad esempio, guarda i miei video Fiber vs. Breast Cancer (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/fiber-vs-breast-cancer/) e Come prevenire un ictus (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/How-to-Prevent-a-Stroke) .<br/>
C'è questo malinteso che non possiamo digerire la fibra. Non possiamo farcela da soli, ma possiamo farlo con un piccolo aiuto dei nostri piccoli amici della flora intestinale. Vedi Prebiotici: Curare il nostro giardino interno (
http://nutritionfacts.org/video/prebiotics-tending-our-inner-garden) .

Ma non per sminuire tutta la sofferenza causata dalla stitichezza. Sentiti libero di controllare quanti movimenti intestinali dovresti avere ogni giorno? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/how-many-bowel-movements-should-you-have-every-day) e dovresti sederti, accovacciarti o appoggiarti durante un movimento intestinale? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/should-you-sit-squat-or-lean-during-a-bowel-movement)

Non è questo parlare di fibre riduzionistiche? Buona domanda! Così buono, infatti, che ho fatto un intero video a riguardo. La teoria delle fibre è sbagliata? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/is-the-fiber-theory-wrong) è in coda next.

100 Risposte a “La regola delle fibre cinque a una”

  1. Denis Burkitt would be be happy with all the emphasis on fiber. He said it for years, after realizing that rural Ugandans had such great health because of their high-fiber diet.

  2. @Dr. Greger – I think a lot of your videos are on point but I believe this rule should be applied broadly and not to specific foods. Your formula eliminates black rice, red rice, brown rice, etc…

  3. This doesn't sound a reasonable recommendation. All the whole grains in my pantry (ALL the WHOLE GRAINS) fail this guide line. Old fashioned whole oats coming in at 27/4 is nearly 7. Whole wheat flour at 20/3 is about the same. Quinoa at 30/3 is 10! Whole grain brown rice at 35/2 is over 17!! Even most peoples' go-to-food for constipation, prunes also fail at nearly 9, coming in at 26/3.Am I missing something here? Even if a prepared food contains these whole plant-food ingredients how can it present better ratios than the ingredients themselves? Fiber fractionates? … I'll pass. Just eat your whole plants as unprocessed as possible and forget the labels.Sorry Dr. G., this guideline seems impractical.

  4. it's easy to know if you're getting enough fibre. As long as you have two quick and easy bowel movements a day and no squirts then you're fine.

  5. just thought it was worth pointing out that in the US fibre is included in the carb tally whereas in the UK it is not. so is this ratio based on US or UK labels?

  6. I checked oatmeal, which is just whole rolled oats, and it's about 7. Checked whole wheat flour, it's about 10. Obviously this isn't going to work. We need to eat a combination of whole grains with fruits and vegetables to get enough fiber, and it only matters in a day's total meals. Still worth looking at, but mostly we should spend more time in the produce section and eat at least 2 cups a day along with whole grains and legumes.

  7. I look at the fiber ratio from a different perspective. I aim for an equal amount or more grams of fiber to protein. If you consume 80 grams of protein, then a minimum of 80 grams of fiber to be healthy. Of course fiber supplements do not count.

  8. Could someone help me find a video by Dr. Greger? It was one that contained pictures of cancer cells being stopped in their tracks.

  9. i think a 100g fiber goal is better. or a 1 to 1 protein to fiber ratio. seems like protein is more likely the troublesome ingredient to digest without fiber.

  10. I don't measure what or how many i get. I just listen to my body and how it feels before and after i consume something, eat when Im hungry and drink when Im thirsty. Aslong as most of it is whole foods you should be fine.

    Honest best way to be if you worry to much your whole life will attract more things to worry about. #Lawofattraction

  11. People Freaking Out In The Comments: Behold, the doctor is referring only to things like commercial breads, cookies, crackers, etc. Your rolled oats, quinoa, and brown rice are exempted! Yea, all is well!

  12. I lost almost fifty pounds just by insuring I had enough dietary fiber every day. This was almost fifteen years ago and I maintain a similar diet and same weight. Dietary fiber is very important consideration in my personal experience.

  13. Hi Doc, when you hit your stride you move fast. The Uncle Sam cereal for example, that rabbit hole was a goldmine. Attune foods 5 product lines including Uncle Sam's are a mother-lode. I assume (why did I do that), that the winter berry wheat and ancient grains means grains I knew before 1985 when 16 fold increases in yield took the farming industries by storm.Thanks Doc

  14. I could (to my surprise) not find any information on your site about Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and hyper mobility. I have a good friend that suffers from this and would love to get some information how to treat it.

  15. Can't say that this ratio always work out! Our steel cut oats are 5.7, yet obviously they are a completely whole food that is healthy!

  16. I didn't make this 5:1 rule today apparently. I ate 353g for carbs and 60g of fibre. Almost a 6:1 there. Time to get off the whole foods and find some packaged goods at 5:1 or better.

    /not serious

  17. Man…I was so proud of myself for eating Quaker "Old Fashion" oatmeal everyday…knew better than use the "Quick" type…but seems even the OF has a 6.75 ….well dang

  18. Whole oats and Farro do NOT make the 5 to 1 rule.  Should I stop my steel cut oats for breakfast?     However, Bulgur does make the rule.

  19. Lol following that 5 to 1 rule, a big amount of healthy food doesn't pass . Even 100% whole grain pasta, 100% whole buckweat and brown rice do not pass. Quite some fruits don't manage to reach the 5 to 1 either. Only vegetables and beans/lentils/chickpeas have that ratio.
    I think it's best to not just 1 product, but to look at your meal as a total. Or keep track on your food intake by using cronometer.

  20. Using this rule of thumb, all of my whole grains- oatmeal, shredded wheat, millet, brown rice, etc. all excluded. Am i missing something here, or are you suggesting no whole grains?

  21. I have found Nature's Path Organic Flax Plus Multibran Flakes, Publix GreenWise Flax Flakes, Kashi Golean Honey Almond Flax, Kashi GoLean Cinnomon Crunch to meet the 5:1 ratio. Ole" Xtreme Wellness Spinach & Herbs Tortilla Wraps are off the chart 16/11= 1.45

  22. sooo what happens if you do most of that etc. but still after pooping its reeks ??(clean butt after release) someone has it and trying to help they out

  23. Nope, terrible rule. Plus you used the wrong nutrition label for the Ezekial bread which is 35 grams per slice/serving. Not 100grams. That would be nearly three slices. You probably used the label for a waffle or some shit. Anyway, it would make more sense to compare serving size in grams to dietary fiber. And make it a 11:1 rule. So, your typical rolled oat cereal would qualify (28g :3g) Your Ezekial bread would be 35:3 would qualify. The white breads/wonderbreads would fail, Multigrain cheerios come close, and so on.

  24. I love Dr. Gregor and am on board, but one question for anyone to answer: by this equation, one serving of raw oats which has 27 carbs and only 4 fiber fails. So should we not eat oatmeal anymore?

  25. Don't be fooled. This isn't about the fiber. It's about the added sugars and fructose.

    The problems are caused by the added sugars.

    If they would simply add more fiber to the product, improving the ratio, in stead of reducing the amount of sugar, the problem of too much sugar would still exist.

    It makes you wonder why they add so much sugar. The reason is simple: it's because they reduced the fat content. Fat helps to improve the taste. Not because fat has a lot of taste, but because fat helps to transfer the taste of the other ingredients. To compensate for the lack of fat, they add sugar and fructose.

    Like fiber, fat reduces the absorption rate of carbs.

    Don't be afraid of fat. Just avoid high omega 6 vegetable oils.

  26. Interesting video Dr. Gregor but you seem to have forgot to mention that some food manufacturers add fiber willingly to increase the fiber content on the package. That way they can make the content look better and make it "healthier".

  27. Love your videos Michael, but you f****up on this one. As many people have commented many very healthy foods like oatmeal don't make the cut. I understand this rule is for processed foods, but if one of the healthiest foods on the planet doesn't make the cut and processed foods do it's messed up!!!

  28. Thanks for the info Dr. Greger. I've been searching for a research study backing the 5:1 ratio. I've been able to find one for a 10:1 ratio, which explains that this is the ratio that occurs naturally in whole grains. But I of course like the sound of a 5:1 instead. The editorial in your references doesn't say where they got the 5:1 from either. I'd be entirely grateful if you could supply me with a reference.

  29. The ratios in oats, buckwheat, brown rice, and whole wheat flour are all more than 5. Something isn’t right here.
    Edit: 10 to 1 ratio works better for me and includes almost all whole grains, and veggies as well.

  30. Does anyone know of any other ratios or food metrics such as this? I know Jeff Novick has a couple; fat (<2.5g per 100 calories), sodium (<=1mg per calorie). Interested if anyone knows more.

  31. I enjoy Dr Gregor but using his 5-1 carb to fiber ratio plain cooked oats would not pass this test… so I am not sure about his recommendations here.

  32. I just looked up “oat groats nutrition” and for one cup there’s 123 grams of carbohydrates and 17 grams of fiber. That’s a 7:1 ratio. Does mean whole grain oat groats fail? On Wikipedia it’s a 6:1 ratio… Meanwhile, the Familia brand Swiss Muesli (no sugar added) is a 8:1 ratio and the ingredients are wholegrain oat flakes, wheat flakes, fruit flakes [wholemeal flour (wheat, rye, barley), date pulp, apples, banana puree], raisins (raisins, sunflower oil), millet flakes, roasted hazelnuts, wheat germ, roasted almonds. Cereals: 82%, fruit: 15%. I do the muesli on days that I don’t have time for your famous BROL recipe. Definitely better than Cheerios but is it too processed?

  33. So if I understand this correctly it's okay to not worry about the dietary fibre in whole grains…like here we eat whole grain roti…pearl millet n even jowar grain ….do share your thoughts

  34. Interesting. We eat WFPB but I have gained covid fluffy. I know I've been eating more breads, both store bought and homemadeso I should test this 5:1 just to see if this could be the cuIprit

  35. The problem is that out of non-vegetables, only legumes have a ratio better than 5:1. No grain, not even steel-cut oats, is anything close to 5:1. Steel cut oats are about 6:1. Barley is about 7:1. Fruits also have ratios a lot worse than 5:1.
    So a diet of vegetables and legumes is pretty much it.
