Hi - the minimum fiber intake for everyone, whether they have constipation or not, is 25 - 35 grams per day. Anywhere from 1/3 to 1/2 that amount should be soluble. And you can go higher than 35 grams - many countries have a daily fiber intake of up to 60 grams, and they're much healthier as a result.
