Health Tips

Did you know :


Fibre Cereals

Eating high fibre cereals every day is much better.
Soluble fibre protects your heart and lowers your cholesterol by absorbing and removing it from your body so it’s harder for plaque to form in your arteries and clog them.

Eating fibre helps prevent high blood sugar levels, it slows the digestion of food so that the sugar content is released slowly. The body has a steady supply of energy and does not need to produce extra insulin or convert the energy to be stored as fat.
A bowl of breakfast cereal every day increases heart attack survivors’ chances of living longer, claim researchers. They found an increase in dietary fibre – especially cereals – was linked with lower death rates.
