The case is different for fruits and vegetables, which are rich in fiber. Fiber-rich foods naturally complete the digestive process within a day.

So, it takes up to 3 days to digest protein, and yet only 24 hours to digest fruits and veggies with fiber (which is by definition non-digestible).

Yeah, right.
This sounds like it's right out of "Fit For Life", that nonsense veganism-touting diet book. The one that claims meat just "rots" in your digestive tract. I read that as a teenager and it only took a tenth-grader's understanding of science to know most of the book was (plant-based) baloney.
