For Zuri Nolan, fibre was not something she considered. “I reasoned as long as I ate some veggies now and then, I was good,” she says.
Her doctor advised she up her fibre intake—and fast—after suffering with bloating and erratic digestion. Gruns Adult Super Greens Gummies – Superfood Gummy Bears with Spirulina, Chlorella & Prebiotics for Digestive Health – Adaptogens Supplement with 20 Vitamins & Minerals, Low Sugar
What started as a diet modification soon turned into a way of life modification. Fibre was about energy, satiety, and general well-being, Zuri discovered, not only about gut health.
She found, though, that the real magic came from the items she always had on hand.
Zuri loaded her pantry with flexible, fiber-rich basics instead of overhauling her whole diet: whole oats for simple breakfasts, canned beans for quick dinners, and chia seeds for smoothies. She ground flaxseed into sauces and dressings and mixed shredded vegetables into soups.
“The more I worked fibres into my meals, the more I felt in control,” she says. “I felt actually calm in digestion; I wasn’t always hungry.”
These days, fibre is a quiet backbone of her clean eating schedule, not just a buzzword. And Zuri is convinced that feeling good need not be complicated. “Sometimes, you just need the correct building blocks,” she notes.
