The Fibre Effect

Forget the fads and transform your health with the unsung hero of the nutrition world – FIBRE. Fibre is known for its unsexy reputation of keeping people ‘regular’ – but the truth is, it benefits us in so many more ways. Fibre can reduce the risk of heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes and colon cancer while also lowering inflammation, boosting the health of our gut microbiome and brain and making us less susceptible to depression. Yet here in the UK, we’re only eating 16g a day, when the science says we should be getting 30g. In The Fibre Effect, readers will not only discover how easy it is – once you know how – to hit that 30g a day, but that fibre is far from brown, boring bland bran we thought it was. It’s Rainbow Jelly Compote, Garlic Roasted Butter Beans and Pomegranate Puy Lentil Salad. Unlike restrictive diets or calorie counting, Emma Bardwell’s science-backed approach guides you effortlessly towards better digestion, immunity, hormone regulation, metabolic health, blood sugar balance and weight loss – all by helping you focus on what to add to your diet, not what to take away. Through practical, feel-good advice and over 40 delicious recipes to help you eat all the fibre your body deserves, The Fibre Effect will show you how to reap the benefits of this unsung hero, helping you feel your very best.
