High fibre diet foods
There’s nothing worse than an unhealthy colon, and one way to ensure yours is in good working order is to include plenty of fibre in your diet.
It doesn’t have to be as boring as it sounds! As well as all the obvious options - like prunes, bran and wholegrain foods - there are many other high fibre foods that make great snacks or provide the base of an interesting meal! And, as many high fibre foods are also low in fat, they make a great base for a low fat diet.
Boost your fibre intake with these low fat, high fibre foods:
*Cereal with fresh or stewed fruit
*Low fat bran muffin (have a piece of fruit with it for an extra dose!)
*Fruit salad
*Wholegrain bread
*Grated carrot, kale and apple salad, topped with chopped prunes
*Beans - throw them in a salad, or have them on toast!
*Potatoes (leave the skin on)
*Dried fruit
*Brown rice and wholemeal pasta
*Couscous and quinoa
*Lentils
Tip: Fruit and vegies are generally high in fibre and low in fat - another reason to get your 5+ a day!

One of my fave snacks is orange infused prunes with a bit of yoghurt and honey drizzled on top, so yummy. Prunes go well into chocolate cakes too  and Red lentils can extend soups, casseroles, bolognese etc at little cost, improving the texture and flavour. Love the way this site is keeping us up to date with all the good info., Posted by Bobannie "on" 10/24 "at"10:02 PM |
