Eating more fibre will make you happier

Eating more fibre will make you happier

In the UK we only eat, on average, about half the amount of fibre that we should. It seems perfectly acceptable to discuss how many carbs or protein you are eating, and the latest diets, however talking about fibre is deemed to be much less acceptable.  The obvious link between fibre and bowel movements means that it is a bit of a taboo subject but did you know that it’s not just our bowels that are affected by our fibre intake?   A healthy intake of fibre has been associated with good...
