What’s the first thing you think of when you hear the word ‘fibre’? Metamucil? Keeping ‘regular’ 💩? Chocolate coated digestive biccies?

Chances are, your thoughts go to something to do with your toilet trips… After all, that’s all that fibre is good for…right??

Wrong!

Fibre offers us humans a lot more than just a guaranteed daily poop! There’s weight management benefits, plus diabetes, cancer, and intestinal disease risk reduction…

Plus…just in case you’re into ‘healthifying’ your gut as much as we are here at MothersBabies, fibre is also the numero uno most favourite food of our gut bugs, offering multiple benefits for your gut microbiome.

In this newsletter you can:

  • Read an article by nutritionist Clare Carrick, where she talks all things fibre, including how much we really need to have good gut health.
  • Read a scientific review by Dr Fathalla Ali, where he outlines a fascinating study that investigated the relationship between the types of foods consumed when introducing solids, and the impact these choices had on gut microbiota development in early life.
  • Watch Dr Steven Leach outline the first two years of microbiome development in this short video.
