Rhiannon Lambert: The Fibre Fix, Gebunden

Klappentext

Fibre is often the most overlooked of the macronutrients, yet it is more powerful than most life-saving drugs.

For too long we have focused on high-protein, low-carb diets but fibre's importance for maintaining good health cannot be understated. Fibre is what feeds our gut microbes, directly impacting immune health, and improving the gut: it dictates so much of our overall wellbeing, both mentally and physically. If we don't eat enough fibre we risk symptoms of discomfort and fatigue on a day-to-day basis, while long-term fibre deficiency leads to a higher risk of developing certain cancers, heart disease, and Type-2 diabetes. Despite endless health trends and diet plans, we're constantly missing one of the simplest and most powerful dietary foundations: fibre.

Answering the biggest questions in nutrition today, Rhiannon outlines the importance of gut health and the impact our food has on alleviating symptoms of hormonal imbalances, immunity issues, and common gut and skin complaints. With 60 nourishing recipes for nutritious lunches, quick-fix midweek dinners, fibre-filled twists on classics, and more, Rhiannon clearly shows how we can all easily increase our fibre intake. With plant points and macronutrient figures, this book empowers everyone to get the formula right and hit their recommended 30g of fibre every day.
