Roughage is another name for fiber, which is the indigestible nutrient found in many plant foods. The best sources of fiber are fruits, vegetables, whole grains, beans, soy products, nuts, and seeds.
It acts like a broom for our gastrointestinal tract to keep things moving along and provides bulk to our stool, which prevents constipation. Fiber also absorbs water and expands like a sponge, leading to a feeling of fullness.
Feeling full on roughage means your kid is filling up on healthier, nutrient-rich foods instead of less nutritious options, making life easier for parents.
Even though kids tend to favor more processed foods, introducing roughage can drastically improve their bowel health while also preventing the urge for constant snacking.
