Nutrition Advice Cardiff

Root vegetables such as carrots, potatoes and parsnips are particularly high in fibre. Foods that are high in fibre pass through the gut more quickly than other foods and they fill you up because of their high water content so you eat less. Nutritionists recommend eating a minimum of 18 grams of fibre a day.

Called thermogenesis, this process is good news for dieters because it means we burn up calories automatically rather than storing them.
