Fibre Maxxing: Why It’s Trending and How Lil’ Nibbles Can Help
If you’ve been scrolling through nutrition content online lately, you may have seen the term “fibre maxxing” popping up. But what does it actually mean?
Put simply, fibre maxxing is about eating as much fibre as possible from a variety of wholefood sources to support gut health, balance blood sugars, and reduce the risk of chronic disease. It’s not just about hitting the recommended 25–30g of fibre per day, it’s about including a wide range of plant-based foods, like fruits, vegetables, legumes, nuts, seeds and wholegrains.
Why Fibre Maxxing Matters
-
Gut health: Fibre feeds your good gut bacteria, helping to create a diverse and healthy microbiome.
-
Stable energy: High-fibre foods slow digestion, helping to keep energy levels steady and reducing sugar crashes.
-
Heart health & hormones: Fibre can help lower cholesterol and support healthy hormone metabolism.
-
Satiety: More fibre means feeling fuller for longer, which helps reduce mindless snacking.
