ARE YOU GETTING ENOUGH?
Getting enough fibre can help to keep the
digestive system healthy and reduce the risk of
constipation, diverticular disease, haemorrhoids
andbowel cancer according
to the DAA.Adults should eat least 30g fibre daily. Most manage around 20g each day.

ARE YOU GETTING ENOUGH?
Stripping grains/fruit/veggies of
their outer coat (bran/skin) means you lose most of the fibre,
minerals and B vitamins.

GOOD FOR YOUR HEALTH
High-fibre foods are good for your health. If
you’re not used to a high fibre diet, go slow. Give your natural gut
bacteria time to adjust to the changes you’re
making. Also drink plenty of water.
