Fibre

Fibre is a type of ingredient found in plants like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, and seeds. It is a component of foods that cannot be fully digested by our bodies. Instead, it moves through our digestive system, helping to keep our gut healthy and our digestion regular.

This ingredient is produced naturally in plants through photosynthesis, where plants use sunlight to create energy. Fibre can also be processed from plants to create products like whole grain bread or cereals, where the natural fibre content is retained. Additionally, fibre supplements are sometimes made synthetically to help people meet their daily fibre needs.

Fibre is often listed on food labels because of its important role in supporting digestion and overall health. Foods like whole grain bread, brown rice, oats, fruits, and vegetables are good sources of fibre. Including fibre in your diet can help you feel fuller for longer, support healthy digestion, and even lower the risk of certain diseases like heart disease and diabetes.
