Feel 'All Bran New' by including more fibre in your diet
Many mums are well aware that a large percentage of Irish families do not have enough fibre in their diet. Fibre is essential for digestion and plays a vital role in keeping you healthy. Studies indicate that those who have plenty of fibre in their diet have better control over their weight. It’s also been shown that high fibre cereals can help combat fatigue and elevate your mood. So how can you incorporate fibre into your family’s diet?
A small change you could make to your diet that could significantly improve your fibre intake is switching breakfast cereal. Kellogg’s All Bran is a great way to start the day and will ensure your family is getting plenty of fibre in the morning. However, if you’re looking for a cereal that’s more appealing to children, try Kellogg’s All Bran Golden Crunch. This delicious cereal is a great way to encourage your kids to eat a high-fibre breakfast. It is a light and crunchy multi-grain cereal with all the goodness of natural wheat bran.
Here are some useful tips on how to increase fibre intake:
• Start the day with a high fibre breakfast cereal, preferably high in wheat bran such as Kellogg’s All Bran Golden Crunch.
• Snack on nuts, seeds and dried fruit
• Replace white bread, pasta and rice with wholemeal and brown varieties
• Increase your daily intake of fruit and vegetables
• Include more pulses such as beans and lentils in your diet
These are simple changes but they could make a dramatic difference to your family’s health and well-being.
