Adverse events:

The reported adverse events were related to gastrointestinal discomfort caused by the introduction of dietary fiber in individuals who initially had a diet low in fruits and vegetables. The discomfort symptoms resolved after participants adapted to its consumption, typically within two to three days of symptom onset.

Summary study:

Of the 147 people invited, 58 were evaluated and 40 eligible (22 women and 18 men) participated after giving consent between February and May 2023. The 12-week follow-up concluded in August 2023. Reported adverse events included discomfort gastrointestinal related to the increase in fiber in people with diets poor in fruits and vegetables, symptoms that disappeared after 2-3 days of adaptation.
