but there is no enzyme that can snap the bonds of fibre. It doesn’t get turned back into glucose. This is why when we eat fibre, it remains fibre. It travels from our stomach to our small and large intestines. And this is a good thing. Though it doesn’t turn back into glucose and therefore can’t provide energy to our cells, fibre is an essential part of our diet and plays a very important role in aiding digestion, maintaining healthy bowel movements, keeping our microbiome healthy and more.
