I have been shamelessly watching Facebook videos of people making snack boxes…AND I LOVE IT. Most of them are just candy based on color (so satisfying) but we’re going to make something more functional for your gut health. Obviously.
Fiber Snack Box:
12 g of fiber in one cute little box!
🍓 Strawberries offer about 3 g per 1 Cup
🍫 2 Tablespoons of Cacao Nibs gives you 6 g
🌰 1 oz of pistachios = 3 g
I have been enjoying this mid morning after a protein rich breakfast to help get some fiber in the morning meal, which I typically have a harder time doing. I made 3 or 4 of them for the week and just have them ready to grab when it’s snack time.
PERFECT!
Highly recommend adding this into rotation – if you are unsure how much fiber you’re currently getting, perhaps use this as an opportunity to take a week or so and track and measure that detail so you KNOW.
Goal: 25-30 g
You can’ make a change here unless you know what you’re actually already getting so I encourage you to really think about that and gather the data (track).
Swaps you can make:
Strawberries 🔁 1/2 C raspberries or blackberries or 1 C blueberries
Pistachios 🔁 1 oz almonds
I WOULD LOVE TO SEE PICTURES OF YOUR FIBER BOXES!
If you can’t tolerate eating fiber – we need to chat! It typically means there is something going on in the gut. Either something is there that shouldn’t be OR there is something missing – usually a combination of both.
