    Probably not. Sometimes I eat whole grain noodles. I get maybe one serving of fruit and 1 of veg per day. I have some psyllium husk powder I can dissolve in liquid.

      I cannot recommend getting enough fiber enough. Make sure you drink an adequate amount of water if you do increase your fiber intake. If you don’t, the extra fiber will pull water out of your blood. Having enough fiber in your intestines when you eat capsaicin heavy food will give those capsaicin molecules somewhere else to be that isn’t your gut trpv1 receptors and maybe help quell some of your discomfort!
