FIBRE

It doesn't just keep you regular!

Fibre can be found in bran, fresh fruits, nuts seeds, beans and raw vegetables & Tigernuts!

Psyllium Fibre
A well-known and very commonly used fibre supplement, contains both insoluble and soluble forms of fibre, as do all plant foods. Many people are unfamiliar with what soluble and insoluble fibres really are, and the benefits they have for our health.

Soluble Fibre
Soluble fibre attracts water, dissolves in water and turns into a gel-like substance. The major benefit to soluble fibre is that it slows digestion, thus stabilizing blood sugar by delaying the absorption of glucose. Thus, soluble fibre plays a role in the prevention of diabetes, as well as obesity. By slowing digestion, not only do soluble fibres increase the uptake of minerals and nutrients during digestion, they promote satiety and help to prevent overeating. Psyllium, apples, beans, dried apricots, and oat bran are all excellent sources of soluble fibre.

Insoluble Fibre
Insoluble fibre, in comparison, does not dissolve in water. It acts to increase stool volume, otherwise known as a bulking agent. Insoluble fibre helps to maintain regularity by increasing transit time, promoting regular and healthy bowel contractions. Examples of some sources of insoluble fibre include wheat, corn, rice, vegetables and beans. Insoluble fibre may help to prevent and treat haemorrhoids, varicose veins, and constipation. These fibres also help to promote the removal of toxins through the bowel, before they are given a chance to be reabsorbed into the bloodstream, wreaking havoc on the body. It is this action that gives it such an important role in the prevention of unhealthy colon cells, among a myriad of other inflammatory diseases.

Fermentable Fibre
Recently there has been some dispute about the relevance of dividing fibre into soluble and insoluble categories. As an alternative, fibre can be divided in 'viscous' and 'fermentable'. Soluble fibres that are high in inulin or fructo-oligosaccharides, are said to be fermentable. Friendly bacteria in the large intestine ferment these fibres. These fibres can also be called probiotics. They help to stimulate the selective growth of "good" intestinal bacteria (mainly the lactobacillus and bifidobacterium species), at the expense of "bad" bacteria. Bacteria like e-coli and clostridium species are also normal and necessary as parts of healthy gut flora, but if overgrown or unopposed, are more likely to cause infection. Another advantage of fermentable bacteria is a fatty acids called butyric acid, produced through the fermentation process and the primary fuel of the large intestine. Other short-chained fatty acids produced by the fermentation process are thought to be responsible for some of the cholesterol lowering properties of fibre. Leeks, onion, garlic, asparagus, jeruselum artichoke and chicory root are all high in inulin.

Viscous Fibres
Also primarily associated with soluble fibre, viscous fibres are the cholesterol lowering specialists. These fibres complex with bile acids, which are made by the liver from cholesterol and necessary for proper digestion of fats. After complexing with bile acids, these compounds are the removed from circulation and in turn lower cholesterol levels.

CATEGORIES OF DIETARY FIBRE
-Cellulose, found in bran, legumes, peas, root vegetables, cabbage family, outer covering of seeds, and apples
-Hemicellulose, found in bran and whole grains. 
-Polyfructoses (Inulin and Oligofructans), extracted from onion and by products of sugar production from beets or chicory roots
-Galactooligosaccharides, found in fruit juices, custards, biscuits, pet foods, and candy.
-Gums, found in oatmeal, barley, and legumes.
-Mucilages, found in oats, oat bran, beans, peas, barley, flaxseed, berries, soybeans, bananas, oranges, apples and carrots.
-Pectins, found in apples, strawberries, and citrus fruits. 
-Lignin, found in root vegetables, wheat, fruits with edible seeds (such as strawberries). 
-Resistant Starches, found in ripe bananas, potatoes

Fibres can be added to the diet by increasing your intake of whole grains, fresh fruit and vegetables (with skin!) and beans/lentils. If it is still needed, many commercial fibre preparations, each with a unique mix of fibres in tablets, capsules or powder form, are available. Read fibre supplements carefully because some may contain laxatives, making those preparations unsuitable for long-term use. The recommended intake of fibre is anywhere from 25-40 g/day, a goal that can be achieved quite easily if you know how to make the most of your diet. 2 pieces of whole-wheat toast or 3/4 cups of cooked oats have about 6 g of dietary fibre. A cup of spinach has 7 g, while 1/2 of cooked black beans have just fewer than 10 g of fibre.
