The Fibre Fix: Unlock the Secret to Good Health

by Kristen Stavridis

Harness the power of one life-changing nutrient and feel better than ever.

We know that 90% of us do not eat enough fibre, and our attention is often in the wrong place (see protein, glucose). This practical, evidence-based guide will help everyone embrace a fibre-rich diet and feel the lasting impact on physical and mental health, energy levels and appearance (clearer skin, less bloating, fat loss).

Registered Nutritionist Kristen Stavridis is on a mission to make fibre THE focus of healthy eating.

This book will cut through the noise and overwhelm and share friendly, reliable guidance. With clear actionable takeaways and evidence-based rigour, The Fibre Fix gives you everything you need to understand the true power of fibre and hit your daily 30g target with ease.

PART ONE explains the crisis we’re facing. It explains the impact of fibre in a balanced diet covering the myriad health benefits and the science behind them. It delves into gut health and all you need to know. Then it busts myths and fads.

PART TWO presents the practical info with clear, actionable takeways. Kristen explains the plant points system and ideas for incorporating more into your diet, whether or not you are plant-based or vegetarian.

The book concludes with 30 delicious recipes (from breakfasts to snacks and mains) as well as some sample weekly plans to make it as easy as possible to get started.

I listened to an Advance Listener Copy of this title, and I enjoyed it! The author narrates her book well, and I felt encouraged to intentionally seek out more plants to add in for nourishment. Yes, I could count "plant points" (I learned a new term!) if I wanted, but even just increasing my awareness of striving for more whole foods works for me. She presented some excellent research around the magic of fiber for our health... which really just made me think, 'Yep. The body knows what it needs for optimum vitality, and the earth provides." I appreciated the nudge of the reminders.

Admittedly, I did stop listening when she began reading through the recipes line by line...😁

Great book!

4.5 rounded to 5

Well, it’s rare I finish a non fiction book in general, let alone reading one cover to cover in a day!

What a really informative, easy to read, well written and engaging book on something which doesn’t sound like it’d be that interesting but is - fibre! I really loved how accessible this book is, how everything is explained, the benefits are outlined and the approach is really one of ‘build up the habit’ rather than encouraging you to raid half the ingredients aisle at the supermarket.

The recipes look really delicious - and I love that nothing looks too difficult or expensive to get hold of - or ingredients you wouldn’t use again.

The food plans look really creative and definitely something I could see myself drawing inspiration from.

The only thing I would have wished for? A food prep section - recipes you actually could take to the office or make up for a few days in a row. No one is going to thank me for warming up fish in the office microwave! So a section on that would have really boosted this book to a five star for me - but otherwise I truly loved reading it!

Thank you to book break for my copy 🙏🏻

This was a short, informative, and practical read.

The Fiber Fix focuses on the benefits of dietary fiber and explains why it plays such an important role in overall health. While I would not call the information groundbreaking, I still found it interesting and worthwhile. Sometimes a book does not need to completely change your perspective to be valuable.

One thing I appreciated was how actionable it felt. Rather than simply presenting information, the author also offers concrete suggestions and practical ways to increase fiber intake in everyday life. The book is easy to follow and does not feel overly complicated or academic.

What I liked a lot was how many different aspects the author considered. There were several moments where I found myself thinking, “Oh, right, that makes sense.” She does a good job connecting fiber to various areas of health and daily life, and I often felt that she had thought of important details and perspectives that are easy to overlook.

Overall, this is a concise and accessible introduction to an important health topic. It may not be revolutionary, but it is informative, practical, and offers plenty of useful takeaways.

Not too bad a book about the wonders of fibre, and not too overly sciency or preachy which was nice. Some ideas as to how to add in fibre in your diet, but not large on alternatives for issues other than IBS suggestions, and could have added in some ideas for Celiacs. Audio book read by author, and easy to understand. Has what is fibre to what things have good fibre, and recipes. Ideas suitable for teens and adults.

I appreciate this book championing the benefits of fiber. Fiber is not as trendy or sexy as protein is right now, but it's such an important nutrient for our health. This book gave me some new ideas on how to incorporate more fiber into my diet.
