October 24 Weekly Technique

Try this!

Replace one thing you eat often with a food that’s higher in fibre.

Let’s dive a little deeper…

Fibre is a good-for-you nutrient that tons of people aren’t getting nearly enough of. Finding ways to sneak more into what you eat and drink can help you feel fuller longer and promote better health.

Here’s the lowdown:

Insoluble fibre in non-starchy veggies and some fruits (carrots, broccoli, grapes, or raspberries) helps regulate your blood sugar.

Soluble fibre from some whole grains, beans, and starchy veggies like potatoes and acorn squash is a digestion must-have that can also keep cholesterol in check.

Once you find a swap that works, feel free to try another. Upping your fiber intake may be just the trick (or treat) you’ve been looking for on your weight-loss or wellness journey.
