High Fibre food is all the rage replacing 'high protein' on every label as it in turn had replaced 'low fat' and 'no added sugar'.
The recommendation is to eat about 30g of fibre by dry weight each day for optimum gut health mixing soluble and insoluble fibre found in plant based foods. The fibre content is found on all manufactured food labels and AI will get the rest for you using your search engine of choice.
It's actually quite hard to manage 30g of fibre a day and experts estimate 96% of us don't make the target.
Yesterday I did, This is how I did it:
Breakfast: Full english ( sausage, egg, tomato, black pudding, baked beans, mushroom, bacon and two slices of toast) Total 7g Fibre
Lunch: a banana, a packet of peanuts, a bag of crisps washed down with a glass of red wine. Total 10g.
Supper and evening:
Fish in batter and medium chips with mushy peas and two pints of beer.
Total 14g
Grand total 31g!!
Plus, this diet was very low in sugar and cholesterol and high in protein, vitamins and minerals.
In all the perfect diet.
Don't suppose the nutritionalists would approve though.
