The British Heart Foundation recommend 30g for females and males. The statement that females should have less might be dangerously misleading. Physical size and work now being more equal.

Dietary fiber comparisons among various foods is offtopic for this article. I removed the "comparison" table as having low relevance and inadequate sourcing. Zefr (talk) 01:19, 3 December 2023 (UTC)

Amakuru - please remove or rewrite the misinformation in the last sentence of the image caption: nutrient content for raspberries is provided in the USDA table already in the article as an expert source; raspberries contain negligible iron (see table), and the only dietary 'antioxidant' present is vitamin C. No WP:MEDRS sources and no national regulatory agency states that raspberries are rich in unnamed 'antioxidants' other than vitamin C. Only vitamins A-C-E are dietary antioxidants; other raspberry compounds like polyphenols are not nutrients but are only phytochemicals with unknown in vivo effects.

The raspberry is the edible fruit of a multitude of plant species in the genus Rubus of the rose family, most of which are in the subgenus Idaeobatus. The name also applies to the plant itself. Raspberry plants are perennial with woody stems. It is an aggregate fruit, developing from the numerous distinct carpels of a single flower. Originally occurring in East Asia, the raspberry is now cultivated across northern Europe and North America and is eaten in a variety of ways including as a whole fruit and in preserves, cakes, ice cream and liqueurs. Raspberries are a rich source of vitamin C, manganese, and dietary fiber.
