Fibre, most of it from plants you recognise
What it is
About 25–30 g of fibre a day: legumes, whole grains, vegetables, fruit, nuts.
Always on
- Hummus, lentil soup, majadra and beans do most of the work in an Israeli kitchen already.
- Increase gradually and drink more water, or it is uncomfortable for a week.
- Whole grain bread and rice instead of white is the single easiest swap.
