As you have learned, fiber plays a very important role in your digestive health and overall health. For this assignment you are to calculate the amount of fiber you need based on your daily calorie intake. Then in paragraph form, explain why you need this much and why it is important.
Next design a three-day meal plan that incorporates the amount of fiber you calculated. Include the types and estimated grams of fiber provided by each of the major contributors of fiber in the menu. The meal plan should be in table form. If you would like to add additional information about your other macronutrients you can but they aren’t required.
