Conseils de la Dre Hilary pour augmenter sa consommation de fibres

  1. Read nutrition labels: Under the “Carbohydrates” section, look for a breakdown of the amount of fibre and sugar per serving. Choose foods with high fibre and low sugar. You’ll notice that whole grains like brown rice and whole wheat pasta contain much more fibre than their refined counterparts.
  2. Swap out juices for smoothies: Even “healthy” vegetable and fruit juices contain little to no fibre, so they cause spikes and crashes in blood sugar levels. Smoothies are a great way to include the fibrous parts of veggies and fruits, and you can add chia or flax for an even bigger boost of fibre.
  3. Try something new: Buckwheat, bulgur, spelt and quinoa are healthy carb options that are very high in fibre. Look online for recipes to help you experiment with new foods.
  4. Nutritional boosts: Add beans, lentils, chia and flax to as many meals as possible. Adding these foods to meals like salads, soups, and stir fries will give you a boost of not only fibre, but also other nutrients like zinc, potassium, and iron.
  5. Stay hydrated: Always drink plenty of water with high fibre foods to promote healthy bowel habits. We should aim for at least 2 litres of water daily, and more if we’re physically active or in a warm climate.
  6. Use a meal tracking tool: Many apps are available to help us calculate our daily fibre intake. You might be surprised by how little you’re actually getting each day! If you’re not getting enough, consider a fibre supplement to boost your daily intake.

Although fibre isn’t broken down by the body, it plays a central role in maintaining healthy digestion. Insoluble fibre adds bulk to the stool to keep it moving through the digestive tract to eliminate toxins and waste from the body. Adequate fibre intake prevents constipation, but it can be challenging to get enough fibre even if we’re eating a healthy diet.
