Dietary Fibres in our Baobab Fruit Pulp Powder

Sadly, the dietary fibre intake in Australia does approximate about 2/3 of the recommended daily intake for a healthy functioning of our digestive system.

On average, most Australians consume roughly 20g of fibre daily. The recommendation of The Heart Foundation is that adults should consume approximately 30g daily. Australian experts suggest that children would require 10g of fibre a day plus an additional gram for every year of age. (for exmaple: 10year old child requires 10g + 10g= 20g/day).

Professor Terry Bolin, gastroenterologist, states disorders connected with a lack of dietary fibres are:

  • Constipation
  • Hemorrhoids
  • Irritable Bowel Syndrome
  • Diverticular Disease
  • Bowel cancer
  • Diabetes
  • Raised Blood Cholesterol

There are two types of main fibres:

Both categories are needed by our system in our daily diets:

Soluble fibre – includes pectins, gums and mucilage. One of its major roles is to lower blood cholesterol levels. Soluble fibre can also help with constipation.

Insoluble fibre – includes cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin. A major role of insoluble fibre is to add bulk to faeces and to prevent constipation and associated problems such as hemorrhoids.

Our Baobab Fruit Pulp Powder contains 45% of dietary fibres of which 22.5% is soluble and 22.5% is insoluble. 2-4 teaspoons will provide us with half of our dietary fibre requirement per day.

Baobab fruit pulp has been shown to assist in maintaining overall health and well-being, particularly the digestive, gastric and bowel system.

A healthy digestive system will furthermore aid the absorption of essential vitamins, minerals and amino acids and fortify the health of the immune system. We can utilise as many dietary & health supplement as we want but without a healthy functioning of our digestive system, our bodies won’t be able to absorb any of them. Our health and well-being truly relies on a healthy gut!
