Fibre is an important part of a healthy diet, but it’s not always easy to obtain as much daily fibre as you need.
As part of a healthy diet, doctors recommend consuming a minimum of at least 20-35 grams of dietary fibre each day. Most people however, get less than half that amount in their diet.
ARE YOU GETTING ENOUGH?
Fibre, also known as bulk or roughage, is a substance found in all plants that are eaten for food, and it is essential for maintaining healthy intestines and colon.
Fibre performs important functions within the body.
Insoluble fibre absorbs water, softens stools and moves materials through the intestines. It also helps to balance the pH acidity levels inside the intestines.
Soluble fibre binds with fatty acids and prolongs stomach emptying time so that sugar is released and absorbed more slowly. Fibre provides a host of benefits to several body systems, and as most of us don’t get enough fibre in our daily diet, supplementation is a great alternative.
Typically, a western diet is low in fibre, and research shows that a low fibre diet is directly related to obesity, and a variety of other ailments.
Fibre plays a key role in controlling cholesterol and blood sugar levels, and provides dietary bulk to maintain a healthy intestinal system. Fibre also absorbs toxins and unabsorbed fats in the bowel and eliminates them.
Fibre’s most common benefit is the regularity that it promotes. High fibre diets have also been shown to reduce the risk of certain health conditions. High fibre foods, such as legumes, whole fruits, oats and bran, are also low on the glycemic index. A diet high in these foods may help lower the risk of type 2 diabetes.
