If you had a mother like mine, you would have been told over and over again about the importance of fibre. But no one likes mushy vegetables and fruits when you could have so much more fun with carbs and sugar. It was only after I grew up that I realised how important a factor good fibre plays on your health.
What is the importance of fibre in your diet?
Fibre is the indigestible kind of carbohydrate that is found in most plants. Vegetables, fruits and grains are great sources of fibre. Fibre helps you improve your digestive system and bowel movement and even act as food for your gut bacteria or gut microbiome. I have already talked about the benefits of having a healthy gut microbiome. Fibre can be divided into two- soluble fibre and insoluble fibre. Soluble fibre helps in slowing down the stomach’s emptying process and helps you remain full for longer. It also reduces cholesterol levels and helps manage blood glucose levels. Soluble fibre is mostly found in vegetables, fruits, legumes, oats, and barley.
Insoluble fibres absorb water, help soften our bowel, and helps in regular bowel movement. It also keeps us full and keeps the bowel environment healthy. Insoluble fibre is most commonly found in whole grains, nuts and skin of fruits and vegetables.
There is also something called resistant starch, which is not digested in the small intestine. It passes to the large intestine and acts as food for your microbiome, aiding in the production of good bacteria, similar to the ones found in Nutriplus GutHealth.
Why Nutriplus FibreFit
But now you must be wondering, if grains, fruits and vegetables are such good sources of fibre, why should I use Nutriplus FibreFit?
Yes, if you have a diet rich in whole grains, fruits and green vegetables, you most probably must be getting all of your fibre needs. But are you using whole grain? Or are you using white rice and refined wheat flour? Did you get your five a day when it comes to fruits and vegetables?
A healthy male adult needs 30grams of fibre per day, while females need 25 grams. Most of us are not able to get a proper and balanced diet these days. This can be due to an over-dependence on junk food, use of refined grains or just a lack of time to sit down and eat a home-cooked meal. And when it becomes impossible to get the necessary fibre, your overall health begins to suffer. All of that can be avoided by making Nutriplus FibreFit a part of your daily routine.
