Australian chefs promote easy ways to boost daily dietary fibre

Health experts and chefs recommend simple changes to increase daily fibre intake without extra effort. Switching to whole‑grain or multigrain breads, wraps and cereals can add 3–5 g of fibre per serving. Choosing brown or black rice instead of white, and opting for whole‑grain, legume or high‑fiber pasta, further raises fibre consumption.

Australian chefs such as Neil Perry and Katrina Meynink suggest using multigrain breads for sandwiches, adding oats or bran to smoothies, and selecting high‑bran cereals. Incorporating seeds, fruits, nuts and legumes into meals provides natural fibre sources that support digestive and immune health.
