FIBRE
Fibre is an important component of a healthy balanced diet. Fibre can be obtained
from plant-based foods. Fibre is not a nutrient and contains no calories or vitamins.
The fibre can be divided into two categories, and both of them are needed to be
healthy :
1) Soluble fibre which leads to steadier energy;
When you eat plenty of foods which is reach in soluble fibre (oats, pulses, nuts,
seeds, fruits, vegetables) it helps to reduce blood cholesterol, to steady energy level
and stabilize the mood. It gives a gentle rise in blood sugar which lasts longer. It is
especially a great advantage for overweight and diabetic person to eat as much food
that consists of soluble fibre as possible.
2) Insoluble fibre which speeds the passage of waste;
When you eat plenty of foods which is reach in insoluble fibre (cereals, grains and
especially unrefined wholegrains, unpeeled fruits and vegetables) it helps food waste
to pass through the digestive track quickly and more easily and also prevents
constipation.
