                                According to the American Society for Nutrition, fewer than 1 in 10 US adults meet their daily recommendations for fiber intake, a prime example of what the typical American does not eat enough of. This shortfall, along with others, is largely due to the high consumption of processed, energy-dense but nutrient-poor foods. Understanding these nutritional gaps is the first step toward improving overall health through strategic dietary changes.
