How it works?

Not all fibre supplements are created equal! Fibre Complex provides a high-fibre blend of five different types of soluble and insoluble fibres, for optimal and gentle digestive support.

With modern lifestyles and diets, it can be difficult to obtain enough fibre from our food. Fibre Complex can help you attain your fibre needs and meet the daily 30g of fibre intake set by the national dietary guidelines. 90% of the general population are estimated to have insufficient daily fibre intake, with average levels of only 18-20g daily.

FIBRE AND GUT HEALTH

Fibre plays an important role in gut health, as it is the key source of nutrition for our gut microbes, which are the trillions of bacteria, yeast and fungi that live on and within us.

‘Gut health’ refers to the physical state and function of the whole digestive system, including the upper and lower gastrointestinal tract, such as the oesophagus, stomach and the intestines.  Our gut is not only responsible for optimal digestion, it is the centre of our immunity, hormone regulation, and our brain health. Recent evidence also suggests that keeping our gut happy and healthy can contribute to a healthy thyroid, better sleep, and support the health of our urinary tract.
