What are some "fiber hacks" that I could use, my kid is very picky about food
My kid is incredibly picky and getting enough fiber feels impossible. Most fruits are a no, vegetables are a hard no, and even a lot of whole grain foods get rejected immediately (I've tried some high fiber cornflakes and it works sometimes I don't think that's healthy enough though). Any trick that you use to make em eat more fiber?
Usually kids eat what they need and how much they need and don't need to be driven down a certain way. I hope that makes sense. I am trying to paraphrase what my PED DOC said to us.
Oatmeal has fiber, pretty cheap.
Avocados 🥑 are super incredible for gut health, digestion and fiber.
There are loads of homemade granola that can be pack with the right amount of texture and sweetness to make any kid happy, loaded with fiber..nuts flax seed, oats, dried fruits...etc...
Smoothies in the morning with milk or plant based milk, add a cucumber celery and spinach, with a scoup of protein powder, bam it's healthy nutrition
Whole prunes, they make these in flavors now like orange or elderberry also a great source of fiber.
