per 1 mediumHow much fiber is in banana?
Banana delivers 3.1 grams of dietary fiber in a typical 1 medium serving, which makes it a moderate source of fiber. That covers roughly 11% of a 28 gram daily reference intake, so it adds gently toward your fiber goal for the day.
Of that total, about 0.7 g is soluble fiber (which forms a gel in the gut and helps with cholesterol and blood-sugar) and 2.4 g is insoluble fiber (which adds bulk and supports regularity).
USDA FoodData Central; total dietary fiber nutrient 1079. Soluble and insoluble grams are category-based estimates, not lab-measured values.
