Let’s talk about FIBER.
Benefits of Fiber:
* Lowers cholesterol levels
* Reduces Cortisol (the main stress hormone)
* Stabilizes insulin & blood sugar levels
* Lowers bad estrogen
* Helps with detoxification & weight loss
* Maintain healthy bowel movement & gut health - if you don’t p**p everyday, we’ve got to talk!
* Helps you live longer

Fiber reduces the risk of:
* Heart disease
* Type 2 diabetes
* Diverticular disease
* Constipation
* Colon cancer
* Breast cancer

Most Americans only consume 10-15 grams of fiber per day.

IDEAL DAILY FIBER INTAKE: 60 grams per day. (RDA recommendation is too low)

GOOD SOURCES OF FIBER:
* Vegetables
* Legumes
* Whole grains
* Fruits
* Nuts & seeds

WORK UP SLOWLY!
It’s important to increase your fiber intake slowly as increasing it too quickly can cause gas, bloating and even constipation. Bloating and gas are also a sign that you don’t have healthy gut microbiome.

Please, share and follow for more helpful tips.

The health benefit of plant based diet is well known but one of the most common question about going plant based is “how do you get your protein?”

Many people fear deficiency of protein by going plant based. A retrospective review by Mayo Clinic showed vegans get sufficient proteins and doesn’t lack any specific amino acids. In fact, all plants contain all 9 essential amino acids. Also, legumes are one of the best source of protein, fiber and super nutrients.

Advantage of plant based protein: it doesn’t come with all the baggage of proteins from animal products:
- Saturated fat
- Cholesterol
- Increase IGF-1 (increase risk of cancer)
- TMAO (increase inflammation and associated with heart disease)
- Heme iron (damage cells and DNA)

Also, only plants contain FIBER, one of the most important nutrients.
