Diet Intervention Guide: Pectin
Pectin is a type of fibre found in many fruits and vegetables. It’s a natural thickening agent commonly used to set jams and jellies. However, pectin also has numerous health benefits, particularly for the gut.
Pectin is well-known for supporting digestive health. It forms a gel-like substance in your intestines that may improve bowel regularity. It can also help the bacteria in your gut produce substances called short-chain fatty acids, which are linked to better health.
A great way to increase your intake of pectin is through a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, legumes, and nuts.
