Goodbye high-protein, hello fibre!
Fibre is more powerful than many life-saving drugs: its importance in our diet and impact on our overall health and wellbeing cannot be understated. Yet, 96% of us aren't consuming enough.
Sunday Times bestselling author and industry-leading nutritionist Rhiannon Lambert is here to unpack the benefits of fibre, and outline the growing recognition of the importance of good gut health on alleviating a wide range of common complaints and health conditions. The solution is simple: 30g of fibre a day + eating 30 different plants a week will drastically improve short-term discomfort and fatigue, and lead to a much lower risk of developing more serious health conditions in the future.
Alongside this clear formula Rhiannon offers 60 minimally processed recipes.
Recipes include:
Breakfasts: Potato farls with an avocado smash, Barley porridge with blackberry and bay compote
Nutritious lunches: Coronation Brussels sprouts & chicken salad; Veg-filled summer rolls
30-Minute Dinners: Green butterbean mac & cheese, Steamed cod & white beans
Fibre-filled Twists on a Classic: Champion chocolate chilli, Baked aubergine Milanese
Snacks: Vegetable bhajis with coriander chutney, Popcorn - 3 ways
Desserts: Chickpea blondies with tahini & raspberries, Rice pudding with salted pear compote
With plant points and macronutrient figures included for every recipe, this book empowers everyone to get the formula right and hit their recommended 30g of fibre every day.
