Why fibre matters:
Fibre is one of the most essential yet often overlooked nutrients in the modern diet. Found in plant-based foods such as vegetables, fruits, legumes, and whole grains, dietary fibre plays a vital role in digestion, metabolic health, and maintaining a balanced gut microbiome.
Types of fibre and their benefits
Fibre is broadly classified into two types: soluble and insoluble.
-
Soluble fibre dissolves in water and is fermented in the colon to produce short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). These SCFAs help:
- Reduce inflammation
- Strengthen the gut lining
- Fuel colon cells
-
Insoluble fibre does not dissolve in water. Instead, it adds bulk to stool, promoting regular bowel movements and helping to relieve constipation.
How much Fibre do you need?
Most adults require 25–30 grams of fibre per day, yet many fall short of this target. A balanced intake of both soluble and insoluble fibre is key to supporting overall health.
Why choose PEAK Fuel?
PEAK Fuel is formulated with a diverse blend of soluble and insoluble fibres sourced from ingredients such as:
- Psyllium husk – forms a gel-like substance that improves stool consistency and nourishes beneficial gut bacteria.
- Inulin – a prebiotic fibre that boosts SCFA production, supports gut barrier function, and enhances regularity.
- Flaxseed mucilage – helps relieve constipation, promotes satiety, and supports blood sugar control.
- Cellulose & lignan – add bulk to stool, support motility, and may reduce the risk of colorectal cancer.
- Hemicellulose & pectin – help lower blood sugar and cholesterol levels while increasing stool volume.
- Resistant dextrin – acts as a prebiotic, improves insulin sensitivity, and promotes fullness.
- Xanthan gum – may help stabilize blood sugar levels.
More than just gut health
Fibre’s benefits extend far beyond digestion. Soluble fibres help regulate blood sugar and cholesterol, while insoluble fibres improve insulin sensitivity and reduce the risk of chronic conditions like type 2 diabetes. Together, they support:
- Weight management by promoting satiety
- Reduced abdominal fat
- Improved metabolic health
