Pistachio and strawberry baked cheesecake

Cannellini beans are a strange but wonderful addition to this delicious cheesecake, they contain an abundance of fibre which comes with a handful of health benefits.

Are you fearful of fibre?

Over 30% of adults experience a sensitive gut at some point in their life, whether that be constipation, burdensome bloating, IBS or even stomach upset from a bug or course of antibiotics.

In clinic, we find that many people with gut symptoms will often strip a lot of high fibre foods out of their diet (such as veggies and legumes) when their gut flares up in an effort to reduce gut activity. The issue is that many then tend to feel frightened about adding it back into their diet in case their symptoms pop back up.

We get it: it can feel safer to stick with low-fibre foods such as meat, fish and refined carbs. But the thing is, restricting your diet in this way means that you’re unlikely to get enough of your gut microbes favourite nutrients such as fibre and other plant chemicals.

The science shows that both you and your gut needs fibre in your diet daily to be your healthiest and happiest self.
