Happy Gut Stewed Apples

One of my favourite ways to nourish the digestive system is with simple stewed apples and cinnamon.

Pectin, a type of soluble fibre found in apples, has incredible gut healing and nourishing properties. Pectin is released during the cooking process and can help to maintain and repair the mucosal lining of the intestinal tract. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
