Fibre isn’t just about keeping things moving — it’s a powerhouse for gut health, cravings, blood sugar balance, and long-term weight maintenance, especially after bariatric surgery or when taking GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, or Mounjaro. In this episode, Evie and Helen break down what fibre actually is, why it matters so much post-op, how to add it without bloating, and the surprising link between fibre and your gut microbiome. They share personal stories about what didn’t work for them early on, their favourite easy fibre swaps, and practical tips to help you hit your goals without discomfort.
