As I get older, I find that my body needs more fiber to work properly. It’s one of those things that I’m starting to get used to, like gray hair and laugh lines. I’ve just adjusted my routine a little bit to compensate for the changes my body is going through.

There are a lot of different ways to add fiber to your diet, including things like prunes, black beans, and split peas. Since I like starting my morning with something high in fiber, I decided to create this high-fiber smoothie recipe.

I love the taste. And, I love that it takes only a few minutes to make in the morning. I don’t have a lot of time in the morning to make breakfast. So, I want something I can have ready in only a few minutes.

What can I add to my smoothie for fiber?

Did you know that avocado, pineapple, and chia seeds are all high in fiber? Avocado has 6.7 grams (raw) per half, and pineapple has 2.3 grams per cup. Pineapple is one of my favorite high fiber foods to poop.

When you add a tablespoon of chia seeds (5.5 grams of fiber), you have an amazingly high fiber smoothie that is absolutely delicious.

I also use chia seeds in my banana smoothie with ice.

Do chia seeds make you poop?

There is no one-size-fits-all answer to this question, as the effects of chia seeds on bowel movements will vary from person to person. However, some people may find that eating chia seeds helps you poop more frequently and softens your stools.

What vegetable is highest in fiber?

Usually, the darker the vegetable, the higher in fiber content. So, carrots, beets, and broccoli are all high in fiber. And collard greens, Swiss chard, and artichokes are also very high in fiber.

You can always modify this high fiber smoothie with a few extra servings of vegetables if you want to. I’d probably start with shredded carrots.  Here are some more high fiber foods to help with constipation you can eat. You may want to try my high fiber overnight oatmeal recipe.

How can I add more fiber to my diet?

If you want to add more fiber to your diet, eat more whole grains. Include more vegetables with your meals and eat them before eating the rest of your meal. Whole grain popcorn is a great snack if you want something high in fiber.

Of course, there are times I need more than this smoothie recipe to get relief. When I suffer from occasional constipation, I turn to MiraLAX® because it provides dependable, gentle relief and works with my body’s natural processes.

It’s different from other laxatives because it works with the water in your body to hydrate, soften, and ease, unblocking your system naturally. You can find it right here.

The last time I was at Walgreens, I noticed that they had MiraLAX® Mix-In Pax which I hadn’t seen before. I normally buy a bottle of MiraLAX® to keep on hand. The MiraLAX® Mix-In Pax are super handy to take when I’m traveling or away from home.
