Fibre, the essential “non-nutrient” Dietary fibre is a complex of non-digestible carbohydrates present in the cellular structures of the plant-derived foods we eat. Fibre includes the skins and pulp of fruit and vegetables plus seeds, nuts, beans and grains. It comes to us as five different components in two basic forms. One form is insoluble fibre, its component types are cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. The second form is soluble fibre, its component types are gum and pectins. Each of these five different types of fibre contributes benefits to the overall proper functioning of our digestive tract. From grandmother’s advice to a scientific fact Just a few short years ago, dietary fibre (referred to as roughage) was considered to be irrelevant to well-being. Only grandmothers, who claimed “you need your roughage every day to stay healthy”, seemed to recognise the value of this important aspect of our diet. However, physicians working in Africa found that certain societies appeared to be free from any diseases common to Western cultures. They found that people in these societies were living on high fibre diets of unrefined, unprocessed foods, and determined that the lack of fibre in the Western diet may be responsible for many common challenges to our well-being. We don’t get enough fibre Health organizations currently recommend a dietary intake of 25 to 35 grams of fibre per day for adults. The average person consumes only 10 to 20 grams per day – about half of the amount recommended. Considering the importance of dietary fibre, this appears to be a critical weakness in our diet.

Fibre Tablets is an ideal source of fibre containing a variety of both soluble and insoluble fibre for maximum benefit and efficiency.
