Living with IBS can make cooking and mealtimes feel like a daily puzzle, as certain foods can trigger discomfort while others help promote balance. Figuring out food choices can be overwhelming, but making thoughtful changes – like incorporating more gut-friendly ingredients – can help ease digestive discomfort and support long-term gut health. We’re here to help you find recipes that are both nourishing and delicious making mealtime enjoyable again.
For IBS Awareness Month, we’re excited to share this delicious and gut-friendly recipe: Prebiotic-rich Cinnamon Stewed Apples.
Apples contain prebiotic fibres, which act as fuel for the beneficial bacteria in your gut, helping them thrive and maintain a healthy microbiome. A well-balanced gut microbiome plays a key role in digestion, nutrient absorption, and even immune function. By regularly consuming prebiotic-rich foods like apples, you can support gut health and potentially reduce IBS-related symptoms over time.
Cinnamon not only adds natural sweetness but also has anti-inflammatory properties that may help soothe digestion. It can assist in regulating blood sugar levels and may help reduce bloating and discomfort, making it a great addition to an IBS-friendly diet.
This simple recipe is easy to prepare and perfect as a healthy snack, a topping for porridge, yoghurt, or even paired with granola. Enjoy a treat that’s gentle on your stomach and great for your gut!
