Eating vegetables is always an excellent way to help you get your daily intake of fiber, but people who need an extra dose in their diet need to choose the most fiber-rich veggies possible. Broccoli is often named as a great source of this essential nutrient, yet you can find some superior options in the produce kingdom. Green peas are a nutritious legume that outclasses broccoli in terms of fiber content.

When it comes to protein, packaged food and beverage brands have gotten increasingly creative about ways to pack more of the nutrient into their products. Now, a shift is underway. "Fiber will be the next protein," PepsiCo CEO Ramon Laguarta said during an earnings call Thursday. "Consumers are starting to understand that fiber is a benefit that they need," he added. "It's actually a deficiency in US consumers' diet."

Ex-vegan turned carnivore Isabella Ma, better known to her nearly half a million followers on Instagram as @steakandbuttergal, has glowing skin and a flat stomach. She looks directly at the camera as she chomps down on an entire stick of butter. It's part of her high fat carnivore diet to which she attributes a whole host of health benefits, not least of which is the claim she literally never fart[s] any more and has a single scentless bowel movement a week.
