Support your gut with fibre-rich food:
Your digestive system plays an important role in housing trillions of bacteria with vital functions such as helping digest fibre, producing vitamin K and B12 and protecting the gut from harmful bacteria. Some fibres that are in our diet can be fermented by gut bacteria. Fermentable fibre is converted into metabolites like short-chain fatty acids. On the other hand, fibres like oat grain fibre contributes to an increase in faecal bulk.
