Occasional constipation is a common condition affecting 15-20% of the United States population. It can be caused by stress, dehydration, and diet and lifestyle choices. The prevalence of refined sugars and carbohydrates in the modern diet, combined with the low presence of fiber, is linked to the slowed bowel transit time and altered colonic environment. Dietary fiber is the indigestible part of plant foods, enables smooth bowel movements, prevents occasional constipation and promotes healthy gastrointestinal microflora balance.
Fiber Plus is a natural fiber supplement with a balanced ratio of soluble and insoluble fiber to help with occasional constipation and maintain long-term bowel regularity. The main ingredient in Fiber Plus, psyllium husks, is one of the most widely used fibers in natural bulk laxatives. The psyllium husk used in Fiber Plus is organic. In addition to psyllium, Fiber Plus includes flax seed for its glycemic balancing effects and pectin, a soluble fiber found in apples. Fig fruit and prune are also included because they contain natural compounds which act as mild colonic stimulants to relieve symptoms of occasional constipation. Fiber Plus Powder contains 9 g of dietary fiber per serving and has a pleasant taste.
Suggested Use:
Mix 1 scoop in 8 oz of water or juice and drink immediately 1-2 times daily or as recommended by your health care professional.
