I hate vegetables and am sensitive to nightshades. Only get carbs from dairy , white rice, and fruit. Now for the longevety studies on fiber does it matter where you get your fiber from as long as you get a lot of fiber in general? Mainly talking about fruits vs vegetables.
Personally I think if you just increase the fruit it will out weigh the vegetables. If there’s a choice of veg or fruit I always go for fruit. For me vegetables tend to be low calorie so eating to much veg causes me to crash after days and want to binge eat cause if the calories missing. But I am on the active side. If I under eat calories it bonks me when I am riding or trying to train
How do you hate all vegetables? I think you formed a strong opinion based on your youth and refused to challenge that
It may sound rude, but man you gotta grow up and eat them. Roast them with salt and garlic, impossible for it to taste bad
Don’t forget grains, nuts, seeds, and legumes if you can tolerate them! The most important thing to fiber rich foods for longevity is THAT YOU WILL ACTUALLY EAT THEM. So find a variety of the ones you like and start integrating them into your diet.
What matters is the amount of different types (soluble and insoluble). Fruits will not have the same amount of insoluble fiber as some vegetables will. If you can consume insoluble fibers else where like grains then fiber wise should not be a problem.
An improvement consideration is the other nutrients proven to be good for health that are found in vegetables and maybe less so fruit (depending on the nutrient). Maybe blend vegetables into sauces and smoothies to mask the taste.
Vegetables have no real bioavailability on vitamins and minerals just eat a variety of colors of fruit and if your worried about things like vitamin k eat blueberries and kiwi. Vegetables are super overrated and cause gut issues and sometimes thyroid or kidney issues. Fruit have everything good vegetables have plus a lot more on top of that while tasting better.
I think it’s really hard to go from what a study says to what an atypical person should do. And I’m not very convinced that fiber matters much; it’s just a proxy in my mind. I’m also pretty anti-fruit, save for a few examples. It’s not generally worth the carbs.
I’m trying nuts and seeds. Chia pudding is interesting; you might try. Nutritional yeast; slightly questionable maybe, but look at those vitamins! There are cheap tricks like psyllium; but I’m still waiting for deepGoog to answer on probable good strategies on fiber before I solidify my recommendations.
