Registered Dietitian Nicola Ludlum-Raine from the UK said You can add fruit, nuts and seeds to yoghurt and cereal to provide your body with digestive fiber, reports the Daily Mail. It is also recommended to increase the proportion of vegetables, beans and legumes in the diet.
The term fiber refers to all parts of plant foods that cannot be digested or absorbed by the body. These food components are fibers that are processed by the beneficial intestinal microflora. Fiber prevents constipation, improves intestinal motor function and reduces appetite.
The nutritionist explained that despite the beneficial properties of dietary fiber, its share in the diet should be increased gradually. For starters, you can add fruits, nuts and seeds to yoghurt and cereals. The truth is that excess fiber can cause bloating in people with sensitive intestines. After getting used to the new diet, it is recommended to consume more vegetables, beans and legumes.
The doctor added that rich fiber sources include onions, leeks, garlic, asparagus and bananas. These products contain prebiotics, substances that stimulate the growth of beneficial bifidobacteria and lactobacilli in the intestines.
