Per 100 mL. Most people drink 300-500 mL, and many people get fewer than 15g of fiber daily. 3-4g of fiber is nothing to scoff at. It’s a good daily habit.
I have my suspicions about how they calculated that and there was a bit in there about how freeze-dried coffee has the most fiber in it. I think it is much less than they are claiming for most of the preparations that people usually consume. Don’t get me wrong, there are definite social and ritual aspects to coffee that aren’t replaceable, but this trend of trying to insist that everything has some kind of physiological health benefit is seriously misguided. If you want a hot drink with actual proven health benefits, plain green tea without sugar or milk or anything is your best bet.

My teeth are never stained.
Coffee is delicious.
So wrong on every point.
Fiber?
I just did a quick search for coffee nutrition facts, and all resources say 0g of fiber
Assuming you’re using a paper filter, only water soluble particulates will end up in the coffee
And, water soluble fiber tends to be a thickening agent (porridge, Psyllium husk)
On what plane of existence is coffee a good source of fiber?

“0.47 to 0.75 grams”. The daily recommendation for fiber is 25 to 30 grams. You’re better off with a caffeine pill and some oatmeal.
