The Natural Digestive Fix-Fiber

How Fiber Helps Your Gut: The Natural Digestive Fix

In Nigeria, we love our food heavy—swallows, rice, beans, bread, and more. But many of us don’t eat enough fiber, which is like a broom for your stomach. Without fiber, your gut can get sluggish, leading to constipation, bloating, and even weight gain.

There are 2 Types of Fiber and Where to Find Them

1. Soluble Fiber: Found in foods like Tigernut oats, beans, and carrots. It helps control blood sugar and reduces cholesterol.

2. Insoluble Fiber: Found in Tigernut, whole grains, vegetables, and nuts. It helps food move smoothly through your digestive tract.

Best Fiber-Rich Nigerian Foods

• Unripe plantain

• Beans

• Okra (great for soups)

• Garden eggs

• Bitterleaf

• Tigernuts

• Whole grains like guinea corn and Millet

And lots more.

How to Add More Fiber to Your Diet

• Swap white rice for brown rice.

• Eat whole fruits instead of drinking juice.

• Add more veggies to your soups and stews.

• Snack on nuts, veggies (such as carrots and cucumber) and tigernuts, instead of junk food.

A fiber-rich diet is the easiest way to improve digestion and avoid constipation!.
