Detailed product description
Bran is produced during the processing of wheat. It is a source of beneficial digestible and indigestible fibre. A large proportion of wheat bran consists of fibre (43 per cent), which comprises cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin – substances that give bran its hard, woody texture.
Wheat bran performs three key functions in the gut: it retains water and increases the volume of stools; they speed up the movement of stools through the intestines; they bind irritants and toxic substances, cholesterol, bile salts and carcinogens found in the intestines and increase their excretion in the stools.

On the Dukan Diet, 1 tablespoon a day is permitted, but it is best to wait until Phase 2, as it also contains carbohydrates. You can also have them in Phase 1, for example if you’re having problems with bowel movements, but as this may reduce the weight-loss effect, it’s better to avoid them. However, they are not forbidden.

Gluten
Suitable for:
