Eating right for Fibre
Eating a healthy amount of fibre is not difficult, even if the average UK resident only eats half the recommended amount.
Eating five portions of fruit and vegetables a day should be enough to ensure a healthy fibre intake (interestingly the average UK resident averages around half the five a day).
Moving from an average intake to the recommended intake needs to be done carefully taking a week or more to build up. If you don’t then you risk a dramatic decrease in transit time – otherwise known as diarrhoea.
