I eat a zero fiber diet and I do just fine. It seems as if there is no need for fiber if you do not consume carbs.

- moltar 8y agoConfirmed. I also don’t eat fibre. Also my friend had digestive issues all his life. He stopped eating veggies and it went away.
- lucb1e 8y agoThis reeks of pseudoscience and is terrible for the environment to boot.
- grondilu 8y agoThe comment you're answering to wasn't posing as a scientific remark, it was just bringing up facts from direct and indirect personal experience. So it is weird that you see it as "pseudoscience". I've also lately been drastically decreasing my fiber intake. To my surprise, it did not make my digestion worse (though I must say it has never been great).
