HIGH-FIBRE FOODS: OATS

HIGH-FIBRE FOODS: OATS

Oats can be a simple, affordable way to add fibre to the day, but this resource goes beyond telling everyone to eat a bowl of porridge.

It explains what fibre does, why oats are useful, how oat beta-glucan fits into heart-health research, and why fibre is best increased gradually. It also considers texture, predictability, ARFID and sensory needs, because a food is only useful if it is genuinely manageable for the person eating it.

Inside:
• why fibre matters
• what oats can contribute
• beta-glucan and heart health
• increasing fibre gradually
• adapting texture and preparation
• making oats easier on busy days
• a personal fibre check-in
• a message from me
