Nourishment Notes

Whole Grain Bread

Whole grain bread contains insoluble fiber. Insoluble fiber helps to draw water and add bulk within the small intestines making it a great type of fiber for relieving constipation. 

Berries

Berries contain insoluble fiber to help relieve constipation. They also are rich in a variety of antioxidants to help protect healthy cells from damage.

Sunflower Seeds

Seeds of all types, including sunflower seeds, contain high amounts of insoluble fiber, important to relieving constipation. They also contain high amounts of vitamin E to help reduce inflammation and possibly lower the risk of other diseases.

Fatigue Buster
