Fibre is important for an optimal working gut as well as promotes a healthy body weight, blood pressure and reduces your risk of certain cancers like colorectal cancer. This Pineapple and Apple Custard Sorbet is loaded with gut-loving fibre.
More than 70% of Australian adults and more than 50% of Australian children are not meeting their daily needs for fibre.
Most need to slip more in whenever possible and this is a great way to do this.
Pineapple is full of antioxidants that help to fight off free radicals that can cause damage and disease to the cells of your body. Also, vitamin C is needed to make the protein collagen and supports your immune system to work at its best. Pineapple is a good source of manganese which is needed for strong bones and muscle tone. Also, an enzyme called bromelain helps your body digest protein. It is time to upgrade your traditional pineapple sorbet for one even better for your gut.
