To calculate calories from fiber, it's important to note that fiber itself is not fully digestible and typically contributes minimal calories to the diet. While soluble fiber can provide about 1.5 to 2.5 calories per gram through fermentation in the gut, insoluble fiber generally contributes zero calories. Therefore, when calculating total caloric intake, fiber is often excluded, but if you want to include calories from soluble fiber, you can multiply the grams of soluble fiber by the calorie value (1.5 to 2.5 calories) to estimate its contribution.
