Lower Cholesterol

Help lower cholesterol.

Some people can lower their blood cholesterol by making simple changes to their diet and lifestyle. One of the simplest changes you can make is to eat more high fibre foods, especially foods high in soluble fibre, like psyllium.

Eat more high fibre foods.

For example, adding just 1/3 cup of All-Bran Buds^* to your daily routine, can help you get the psyllium fibre you need.

More simple tips:

• Enjoy a variety of foods each day as recommended by Canada's Food Guide.
• Choose lean meat, poultry without skin, and include fish in your diet.
• Choose protein foods that come from plants more often like beans, peas, chickpeas, lentils and tofu.
• Choose foods with healthy fats instead of saturated fat.
• Be active and try to exercise regularly.

Promote Regularity

Help with regularity.

All fibres play a role in a healthy diet, but Health Canada has recognized that wheat bran fibre and psyllium fibre can help promote regularity.

Increase your fibre intake.

A simple way to get more wheat bran fibre, is to add All-Bran Buds^* to your daily routine.

More simple tips:

• Try to be active every day and aim for at least 30 to 60 minutes of physical activity each day.

Are you getting enough fibre?

Did you know most Canadians only get half of the recommended daily fibre? The daily recommended amount is 38 g for men and 28 g for women.
