Fibre & Your HEalth

The Importance of Fibre

Although fibre plays an important role in our diets Irish people do not eat enough fibre.

At the LifeFibre Co. we strongly believe in the importance of Fibre in our diets and that is why we have enriched all of our breads and rolls with Fibre.

Here are a few simple tips to help increase Fibre in your diet:

• Eat 5 portions of fruit every day and remember to eat the whole fruit - the skin of an apple and the pulp of an orange contain fibre.
• Don't peel your potatoes - most of the nutrition is in the skins!
• Eat wholegrain foods such as brown breads, rice and pasta.

Of course adding LifeFibre Co. breads to your diet is another great way to increase your Fibre intake. We have packed our breads and rolls with seeds, wholegrain and wholeflake to give superior levels of Fibre in each bread.

Life in every Slice! As well as being packed full of Fibre, our fruit breads count as one of your 5 a day! Did you know that many LifeFibre Co. breads have more Fibre in one slice than a bowl of Bran Flakes?
