I’m willing to bet that you aren’t protein deficient but you probably are lacking FIBRE! It’s estimated that ~90% of people don’t get enough fibre in a day. Not getting enough fibre can increase our changes of colorectal cancer, heart disease, diabetes and more.
So – let’s change that! I put together my top recommended fibre-rich foods in the post and ideas for how to use them. Save this post to reference later!
My top high fibre foods:
- 3 Tbsp Chia Seeds = 10 g Fibre
- 1/2 Cup Black Beans (cooked) = 7.5 g Fibre
- 1/2 Cup Edamame = 5 g Fibre
- 1/2 Cup Oats (cooked) = 4 g Fibre
- 1/2 Cup Quinoa (cooked) = 6 g Fibre
- 1/2 Cup Barley (cooked) = 7 g Fibre
- 1 Medium Sweet Potato = 4 g Fibre
- 1 Cup Cooked Broccoli = 5 g Fibre
- 1 Avocado = 12 g Fibre
- 1 Banana = 3 g FIbre
- 1 Pear = 5.5 g Fibre
- 1 Cup Berries = 8 g Fibre
