"Of the under-consumed nutrients, calcium, potassium, dietary fibre, and Vitamin D are considered nutrients of public health concern because low intakes are associated with health concerns." - Dietary Guidelines for America 2015-2020 (8th edition)
In the United States, the recommended dietary fibre intake is 14g/1,000 kcal. For an average adult, this translates to a daily intake of 25g for females, and 38g for males. Most Americans only consume about half of the recommended intake. This dietary shortfall is called the 'FIBRE GAP'.
