every time l eat fibre of any kind,eg porridge,wholemeal bread,l get tummy ache and feel unwell.Can anyone advise me what l could eat instead?

A very good way to get ur body used to the idea of fibre is to start with a glass of Metamucil either first thing in the morning or right before bed. Some people work up to 3 glasses per day however, if u r just starting out then this would be a bad idea. Fibre should not hurt ur tummy but sometimes when u r just starting to introduce high volumes of fibre into ur system this can happen.

Metamucil is a powder form of fibre that u mix with water or juice. It comes flavoured or flavourless & is an excellent recomendation for anybody of any age or sex.

l drink fibre daily & it is a very good way to get ur body working properly & to help create an over all healthier lifestyle.

If u try to do this for 2 weeks or so & then try to re-introduce the other solid food forms it may work out better for you.

Best of luck!

fruit has fibre in it. try prunes.

You should check if you are celiac, i.e. gluten sensitive.
