Does it work? Opinions? I am thinking about picking some up for more fiber in my diet.

just eat some fiber one bars or activa, unless ur like 55.

fiber isnt something you just up hella in one day. you have to ease into upping ur fiber intake, unless you live in a bathroom.

Isn't that semi-expensive though? I don't have a ton of money for all of that so I figured adding a little bit of the powder until I get used to it would be fine?

Nature Valley Granola Bars are where it's at. Ate one of those on my way to class everyday in college and I swear my digestive system has never missed its schedule since.

they sometimes are, but i know metamucil makes bars as well. ate them like graham crackers when i had colitis last summer, didnt poop for 2 weeks. didnt know i had colitis until i went into the hospital because of the pain. once the swelling of my intestine went down, i literally pooped my pants at ANY time

spent 3 days in the hospital then another week at home getting the 2 weeks worth of poop out
laugh.gif
ruined my 4th of july

but if you go to a Dr. office they will give you free samples of the bars,powder and pills if you ask for them.

I'll look into the cereal, that seems like a semi cheap option. Gotta toughen up these stools

Really? Do you take the drink additive or the capsule?
