Cacao powder fiber is surprisingly high: USDA lists 37 grams per 100 grams of natural unsweetened cocoa powder, or about 4 grams in two tablespoons for roughly 25 calories. Dutch processed cocoa has a little less, and sweetened hot cocoa mixes have very little.

Goji berries fiber content is solid but not unusual: USDA lists 13 grams per 100 grams of dried goji, or about 3.6 grams in a 28 gram handful. That puts goji right alongside dried figs, prunes and dates.

Reishi mushroom fiber is surprisingly concentrated: a 2024 analysis found dried reishi was about 64% dietary fiber. But most people take reishi as tea or extract, which leaves most of that woody fiber behind.

Chlorella fiber content runs about 7 to 16 grams per 100 grams of powder, which works out to well under a gram in a typical 5 gram daily dose. Most of that fiber sits in the alga’s tough cellulose cell wall.

Camu camu fiber is modest: fresh camu camu pulp has about 1.2 grams of dietary fiber per 100 grams, and a teaspoon of powder adds roughly half a gram. The fruit earns its superfood name from vitamin C, not fiber.

Baobab fiber content is genuinely high: USDA lists 44.5 grams of fiber per 100 grams of baobab powder, and a 10 gram serving gives about 4.5 grams. Unlike most superfood powders, much of that fiber is the soluble kind.

Acai fiber content is genuinely high: dried acai pulp measured about 71 grams of fiber per 100 grams in a 2011 study, almost all of it insoluble. Fresh pulp is mostly water, so 100 grams of frozen pulp likely supplies a few grams, depending on how thick it is.

Matcha fiber content is surprisingly high by weight, about 56 grams per 100 grams of powder in a 2024 lab analysis. Because a cup uses only a gram or two, a typical matcha drink adds roughly 0.5 to 1 gram of fiber, while steeped green tea adds none.

Moringa fiber content is modest: fresh leaves have about 2 grams of fiber per 100 grams, and dried moringa powder has roughly 7 to 9.5 grams per 100 grams. A 5 gram scoop of powder adds less than half a gram, so moringa earns its place through minerals and vitamins more than fiber.

No, spirulina is not high in fiber. A tablespoon of dried spirulina has about 0.25 grams of fiber, so its spirulina fiber content is tiny even though it is rich in protein, copper and iron.
