A new wellness trend dubbed #Fibermaxxing is taking over TikTok, with users promoting high-fiber diets as the secret to better digestion, clearer skin, and improved energy levels.
The trend centers around loading meals with fiber-rich ingredients like beans, lentils, oats, chia seeds, leafy greens, and berries, often in colorful bowls and creative recipes. With millions of views and growing, fibermaxxing has struck a chord with Gen Z and millennial users seeking affordable, natural ways to improve gut health.
Health experts say the trend is grounded in science. “Dietary fiber supports digestion, stabilizes blood sugar, and helps lower cholesterol,” said Dr. Ayanna Lewis, a clinical dietitian. “What’s refreshing about this trend is that it focuses on whole foods rather than gimmicks.”

However, nutritionists are also urging caution. Overconsumption—especially through powders or supplements—can cause bloating, gas, and discomfort. Experts recommend increasing fiber gradually and drinking plenty of water to support the digestive process.
As #Fibermaxxing gains popularity, food brands and wellness influencers are responding with product lines and meal plans tailored to high-fiber living. Whether it’s a fleeting fad or a lasting shift, the gut-friendly focus reflects a growing interest in sustainable, preventive health.
