Which precaution is correct while starting a high-fibre diet?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Increase fibre gradually
Fibre should usually be increased gradually so the digestive system can adapt. A sudden large increase may cause gas, abdominal discomfort, bloating, or altered bowel habits. Adequate fluid is generally important, unless a clinician has prescribed fluid restriction, and the diet should include varied natural fibre sources.
