Simple Strategies to Boost Fiber Intake for a Healthier Gut

Most Americans aren't consuming enough fiber, a nutrient essential for maintaining a healthy gut. Emily Leeming, a gut-health scientist and trained chef, shares four easy and delicious ways to incorporate more fiber into daily meals.

One of her favorite methods is to sprinkle seeds, such as chia or flaxseeds, on breakfast dishes like yogurt or oatmeal. This not only enhances the flavor but also significantly increases fiber content. Another tip is to opt for whole grain options, such as whole grain bread or pasta, instead of their refined counterparts.

Leeming also emphasizes the importance of adding legumes to meals, whether in salads, soups, or as a side dish. These nutrient-dense foods are not only high in fiber but also provide protein and essential vitamins. Finally, she encourages the consumption of a variety of fruits and vegetables, aiming for a colorful plate to ensure a diverse intake of nutrients.

By incorporating these simple strategies, individuals can improve their gut health and overall well-being.
