A healthy bowel is key to feeling good, staying active and enjoying life. What you eat can make a big difference in keeping things moving and supporting your gut health. But for some, even with the best diet and lifestyle habits, bowel incontinence can still be part of daily life.
That’s where Conni comes in. We offer a range of comfortable, discreet and reusable products to support those living with bowel incontinence, helping you manage leaks with confidence and ease. From light protection to heavy coverage, our range is designed to suit your needs and your lifestyle.
To support your digestive health from the inside out, here are five top foods recommended by Medical News Today that can help keep your bowel regular and your gut happy. And when diet alone isn’t enough, Conni is here to provide the extra support you need - every step of the way.
1. High-Fiber Fruits: Nature’s Digestive Boost
Fruits high in fibre help add bulk to stools, promote regularity and support a well-functioning digestive system.
Top Picks: Apples, pears, prunes, kiwis and berries.
Pro Tip: Eating fruit with the skin on maximises fibre intake for better gut health.
2. Whole Grains: Keeping Things Moving
Whole grains are packed with insoluble fibre, which adds bulk to your stool and helps food pass smoothly through the digestive tract.

Pro Tip: Swap out refined grains for whole grains to support long-term gut health.
3. Pulses (Legumes): The Fibre & Protein Combo
Pulses, such as lentils and beans, are rich in both soluble and insoluble fibre, making them a great choice for maintaining digestive health.
Top Picks: Black beans, chickpeas, lentils and peas.
Pro Tip: Introduce legumes gradually to prevent bloating and discomfort.
4. Fermented Foods: Probiotics for a Healthy Gut
Fermented foods are loaded with probiotics, which help maintain a balanced gut microbiome and improve digestion.
Top Picks: Yoghurt with live cultures, kefir, kimchi, sauerkraut and miso.
Pro Tip: Choose unsweetened probiotic foods for maximum gut health benefits.
5. Hydration: The Key to Softer Stools
Drinking enough fluids is crucial for keeping stools soft and preventing constipation.
