Change your lunch, change your life!
CoreLife Eatery is your answer for fiber. As you may know, fiber is a critical nutrient for health. It’s involved in slowing the rate of sugar absorption into the bloodstream, and also helps reduce weight gain, blood pressure, and cholesterol. It can also reduce the chance of heart disease and some forms of cancer. Colorectal cancer, the #2 cancer in America, can be drastically reduced by increasing your fiber intake. There appears to be 10-12% decrease of colon cancer with an increase in 10 grams of fiber in our daily diet.
Fiber is a prebiotic food, partly responsible for the removal of toxins, inflammation, and waste from the body. Fiber has also been found to improve focus and energy. Unfortunately, the average American consumes less than half of the recommended fiber in their daily diet. Women should reach about 25 grams of fiber daily, while men should consume 35 grams. An adequate intake of fiber is key for weight loss because it improves your gut health and makes you feel full.
Our bodies do not digest fiber. As it passes through the small intestine, it picks up waste to transport out of our body. Fiber is found in vegetables, fruits, and nuts. Dark-colored vegetables, broccoli, cabbage, black beans, chickpeas, potatoes, almonds, and walnuts are all food options at CoreLife Eatery that will help give you the fiber your body needs.
