Short description Cut through gut health claims and build everyday habits that help digestion: more fibre, more plant variety, fermented foods in perspective and when to see a GP. 50 written lessons plus 10 practice downloads.
Outcomes
  • Explain in plain words how your digestive system works and what
  • Know the red flag symptoms that need a GP, NHS 111 or 999, in each UK nation
  • Handle everyday constipation, short bouts of diarrhoea, bloating, wind and heartburn using NHS self-help steps
  • Work out how much fibre you eat, read fibre on labels and increase it gradually towards about 30 g a day
  • Plan and cook higher-fibre breakfasts, lunches, dinners and snacks safely and on a budget
  • Choose and store live yoghurt, kefir and fermented vegetables, and follow the safety rules for fermenting at home
  • Judge probiotics, detoxes, gut resets and home kits with a simple claims checker
  • Recognise when symptoms might mean IBS, coeliac disease, IBD, an allergy or an intolerance, and get the right help
  • Write your own gut health plan and plan a higher-fibre week you'd really eat
Requirements
  • No previous knowledge needed
  • A notebook, or a printer for the worksheets (you can also fill them in on screen), and a spreadsheet program if you'd like to use the diary, fibre finder and week planner
  • This is general information about everyday eating and digestion, not a diagnosis or treatment; if you have symptoms that worry you, a health condition or take regular medicines, please talk to your GP
