General recommendations for fiber are 25g daily for females and 38g daily for males. While many people lack fiber in their diet, if you are consuming an adequate amount of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes, then you may consume enough fiber through your typical diet without any additional fiber supplements.
An example of what 25-38 grams of fiber in a day would look like: 1 apple, 1 banana, 2 slices whole wheat bread, 1 ounce of almonds, 1 cup cooked brown rice, 3 cups popcorn, 1 cup broccoli, 1 medium sweet potato, 1 cup spinach
