När allt börjar i magen – fibrer, rutiner och Superfood Belly Boost

When it all starts in the gut – fiber, routines and Superfood Belly Boost

September 16, 2025

We've all been there. After a stressful day or an evening of fast food, the stomach can feel heavy, bloated, or unsettled. It's the body's way of saying balance has been disturbed.

The stomach — the body's mirror

The stomach and intestines are not just a place for digestion. There's a whole ecosystem of bacteria and nerve cells here that affect everything from the immune system to mood. Researchers often talk about the "gut-brain connection" — the close communication between the brain and the gut. When the stomach feels good, we often find the rest of the body follows.

Fiber as a foundation

A key in this interplay is fiber. It contributes to normal bowel function and helps food move through the body at the right pace. The National Food Agency recommends at least 500 grams of fruits and vegetables every day, but whole grains, legumes and seeds are also important sources.

Small routines — big difference

Take time for meals. Eating slowly can soothe digestion.
Fill your plate with color. Berries, leafy greens and root vegetables provide both fiber and variety.
Move your body. A walk after a meal can help get the stomach going.
Create a ritual. A cup of tea, a smoothie or a warming drink can become a moment of recovery.

Belly Boost as part of the whole

For those who want to further vary their diet, there are fiber-rich blends to try. Belly Boost is one example — an organic mix with lemongrass, fenugreek, psyllium husk, star anise, baobab, cinnamon and ginger. It can be mixed into water, plant-based milk or smoothies and can serve as a small daily routine to support the stomach.
