The Fibre-Focused Approach

The Fibre-Focused Approach

Embarking on a journey towards weight loss often involves navigating through various health buzzwords.

Learn about the real benefits of fibre and how Fit Food Perth promotes a straightforward and practical approach to reaching your health goals.

The Basics of Fibre

Fibre, a humble yet essential component of our diets, is primarily found in fruits, vegetables, grains, and seeds.

It's an essential component of a balanced diet, promoting digestive health and offering various health benefits. Dietary fibre comes in two main forms:

  1. Soluble Fibre - which dissolves in water and can help lower cholesterol
  2. Insoluble Fibre - which adds bulk to the stool and aids in maintaining regular bowel movements

At Fit Food Perth, we prioritise fibre in our meals, recognising that sufficient fibre intake is associated with a reduced risk of chronic diseases and contributes to overall well-being.

Fibre for Weight Loss

Exploring the relationship between fibre and feeling satiated, our meals at Fit Food Perth aim to go beyond the conventional idea of weight loss. With a focus on nutrient-dense, low-calorie options, our approach is to help you naturally manage your appetite without resorting to restrictive diets or processed snacks.

Fibre for Gut Health

Understanding the intricacies of gut health, we acknowledge the impact of a balanced diet on promoting a diverse community of good bacteria. Our meals, incorporating plant-based elements, contribute to fostering gut health, supporting optimal digestion, and reducing inflammation.

Practical Tips for Increasing Fibre Intake

Let's explore simple, everyday strategies to seamlessly integrate fibre-rich choices into your routine without the need for an elaborate plan.

  • Embrace VeggiesAdd veggies to every meal effortlessly, be it a swift salad or one of our meals which features broccoli, sweet potato or beans. Amp up your salad with superfoods like kale, capsicum, cucumber, and avocado for a nutrient-packed, flavourful delight.
  • Choose frozen - Short on time for chopping veggies? Grab convenient frozen vegetables in steamed fresh bags from your local supermarket. Fortunately, all of our delicious meals are prepared and delivered fresh but they are also freezer friendly.
  • Mindful Portions - No need for complicated measurements. Visualise your vegetable portions as a guide - about the size of your fist. Adjust as needed to include more low-calorie density foods. 
  • Fruit on the Go - Prepare in advance and bring a piece (or two) of fruit to work for a convenient, high-fibre snack. It's a simple way to integrate fibre into your daily diet, supporting your weight loss goals and increasing your water intake.
  • Seasonal Choices - Opt for the freshness of seasonal fruits and vegetables. Our menu at Fit Food Perth aligns with the seasonal produce, promoting cost-effective, nutrient dense and flavourful choices.
  • Smart Snacking - Elevate your snacking with a selection of high-fibre snacks from one of our delicious snacks including Chocolate Pecan Slice or Peanut Butter Slice. It's the perfect way to satisfy your sweet tooth cravings without compromising your weight loss goals.
  • Meal Prep Ease - In the rush or tight on time, opting for a highly processed takeaway meal is tempting. Keep your favourite Fit Food Perth weight-loss meals stocked up to sidestep this convenience trap!
